I know all about understory. I own 30 acres in Wisc. that was select cut
about 8-10 years ago and is pretty overgrown, not too bad but its noticable. Theres a 70 acre parcel next to me that has never been logged and has virtually no understory to speak of. Another 40 acre parcel by me was clear cut and is overgrown with scrub making it virtually unpenetratable. The deer love it though. Interesting! I'm not sure if this is true for you guys up there, but back in New England, forests grow up almost spontaneously. If you leave a field unmowed and uncultivated, it will spring back to an early successional forest within a few years, and be pretty thick after about 15 or 20. Larger trees like the big hardwoods (rock maple, oaks, cherries, beech, elms, nut trees) take longer, as do the yellow pines...but the alders, willows, pussy willows and dry species go bananas fast. Poplar species do well too. In 50 years, though, the richness has returned, if not the absolute size of the trees. The reason, in large part, is that New England gets plenty of rain during the summer growth season. No such luck here in CA; although some species grow really fast, getting them established is a very hands-on proposition. Bruce Jensen |

Please try to pay attention, at least once in your life. I know it's difficult, but with some medication and some therapy, things might actually work out for you. Why? It did nothing for you, brainless stem. 'Brainless stem' is an oxymoron, 'tard. Not when the brain has withered off the stem, as has yours. You'll have to do better than that to beat the 'ol dxAce in most any endeavour. Easily done, with one brain tied behind my back. dxAce Michigan USA |

Yes Bruce, but logging a few trees is not going to damage the forest. Well, you are right. Logging a "few" trees won't damage the forest. However, what logging company is going to set up an operation for only a "few" trees? Let's try and be a little more realistic here... A hundred years ago, before your "eco-nazi" laws, they would clear cut (can you say "decimate"? Sure you can!) entire forests without batting an eye. |
