Highly effective methods and techniques of seed growing of fiber flax is a basis for accelerated introduction of the new varieties

We conducted researches which allowed developing new more effective methods and techniques for the primary seed growing of fiber flax. The methods of selection using testing of the fiber flax plants by the period of flowering, number of seed capsules per a plant, by a ratio between technical stem length and its diameter and a differences between stem diameters in its top and lower parts, a compactness of the inflorescence (patent No. 2560274 dated 20.08.2015), and the seed weight appeared to be effective. These methods exclude laborious estimation of plants by fiber content in the stem. We worked out and suggested an accelerated system of primary seed growing of fiber flax that allows increasing the volume of the original seeds production in 4-5 times at simultaneous decreasing labour and means expenses and providing shortening of duration of variety changing.
