Three cotton cultivars (DPL 41, 90 and 775) were planted at 3 seeding rates (5, 10 and 20 lbs/A). These variables were evaluated under 5 fertilizer treatments which included increasing nitrogen levels and one treatment with nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) and zinc (Zn). Residual soil N was high and variable and no clear response to applied N was found, although generally higher yields were found with the high N rate. The plots receiving P, K and Zn yielded less than plots receiving an equal amount of N. Increased seeding rates significantly increased yields which was probably an effect of early weed competition. Delta Pine 90 produced significantly more than 41 which was greater than 775. Petiole and soil nitrate values reflected the high and variable available soil N.
