Levels of Growing Stock Demonstration Area

Purpose

This study includes three levels of growing stock and one control plot. One plot is thinned to a constant basal area about every 10 yrs..; one plot allows the basal area to increase at each periodic thinning; and one plot follows the Britining guidelines

Douglas-fir Hormone Study

Purpose

Trees to be thinned. When trees are one year older, taking out their leader to make them bushier, then harvest the trees over the next years until 1990. This project is to study hormone levels throughout the growth cycle of D.-fir. It is also trying to
