You’ll find guidance on site assessment, the pros and cons of slit-planting versus pit-planting, spacing and layout for mixed woods, seasonal timing, and the costs involved. It also covers how different soils and exposures influence planting choices, and how to think about long-term earnings from timber and thinnings.
