Abstract

Small seedbeds were established on three newly cutover areas on the Allegheny National Forest. Site preparation, protection from animals, and season of sowing were studied. It was not necessary to prepare the site or to provide protection to obtain good germination. Seedlings exposed to deer browsing were severely limited in height growth. Best height growth on the protected seedbeds was obtained on seedbeds that were burned with added fuel.
