Summary

Author
English: State of Massachusetts Fish and Game Commission
Description
English: [Quahots] :

These two sizes illustrate the sti ulating effect on growth of current, which acts as a food carrier. In each bet quahaugs of the same size were planted and allowed to remain for three years. The larger quahaugs were planted in a box on the raft, where the circulation of water was good; the smaller in the southeastern corner of the Powder Hole, not 75 yards from the raft, in shallow water among thick eelgrass, which shut off all circulation.
