This article presents results of experiments on the survival rate of seedlings of the Sievers Apple tree, created byplanting materials with a closed root system with different methods of planting on the western slope of the Chatkalridge of Uzbekistan. The results of experiments have established that the highest survival rate for 2 years among thevariants was observed with a deep planting at the rate of 88.4%. The usual and landing with the use of CarboxylMethyl Cellulose (CMC) provided almost the same survival rate between 78.4 and 78.6%. The lowest survival rate ofseedlings was observed only when planted with an open root system, where it was only 25%, which can beconsidered almost completely dead when creating forest cultures.
