Oak-Silvah Prescription “no treatment, monitor acorns, reinventory” Wait for a good acorn crop and inventory 2-5 years after After oak regeneration has established a harvesting can take place

My Thoughts High stocking with over 2000 TPA under 4” D.B.H. High stocking with over 2000 TPA under 4” D.B.H. Thin from below to reduce stocking and allow adequate light for oak regeneration Thin from below to reduce stocking and allow adequate light for oak regeneration Also gives intermediate level trees more room to grow Also gives intermediate level trees more room to grow No harvest of oaks so it won’t negatively affect oak regeneration No harvest of oaks so it won’t negatively affect oak regeneration
