| | Lentil |
 | | Lentil is not very competitive (especially as seedlings) with many of the grasses and/or broadleaf weed species that infest farm fields, so weed control before planting and early in the growing season is critical. | | | Lentil is adapted to cool growing conditions, and the young plants are tolerant of spring frosts. | | | Lentil seed number varies from 15,600 to 100,000 seeds/lb. |
