Talk:Taproot

new age
In the part of the disambiguation paragraph that talks about Michael Hedges, the album Taproot was described as nu age. I think this should be NEW age, and changed the link accordingly. NeilDespres 01:32, 10 January 2006 (UTC)taprootshave tiny hairs that maximize the water and minerals.

Secondary Roots vs. Terciary Roots
Secondary Roots create more secondary roots? Is this accurate? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.240.49.19 (talk) 13:26, 13 February 2007 (UTC).

Trees?
The German wikipedia cites pines as an example of plants with taproots. Biology texts there also separate trees into two groups: those with tap roots (pfahlwurzler) and those with a mostly spread-out root system (Flachwurzler). The section on trees here seems to disagree. Whatsup? 71.236.26.74 (talk) 14:06, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * How so? We hardly have a stub for an article here, but our info on trees does not contradict anything you say. Hardyplants (talk) 20:51, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Over 100% ??
Development: "well over 100% of the roots are in the top 50 cm of soil."

This does not sound right. Does anybody know if it is a typo, or what the source is? PRR (talk) 21:51, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
