Depends on a number of factors, however, I need to ask you one question beforehand:

What varient of the Dc-9 are you flying?

What I meant was, what model of DC9 is it? DC9-10, DC9-30, DC-9-50, DC9-81, or what?

At a guess, preferably above Stall Speed... ::)... ;D...!

The POH, Pilot's Operating Handbook, is a very good thing to read immediately upon entering the cockpit...

...highly recommended, for the safety of the Passengers and Crew... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

Have a peek at the Kneeboard.

Have you landed the default 737?

A very general rule of thumb, use the default 737 speeds.

140kts over the fence (at threshold),  

747

170 or so over the fence,

adjust to taste  ;D with practice

The mention of the word "Practice" generally fills the Passengers with great alarm and consternation!... :o...!
