This project involved the reassessment of spacing and fertilization trials established in the Cascades Natural Resource District in 2001. The measurement of the tree growth and subsequent analysis of the data provides information on the growth response of the spaced and fertilized stands. This analysis provides valuable insight into the development of best practices for different spacing densities and fertilization regimes. Ultimately, the project provides the foundation to grow trees faster, which sequesters carbon faster and increases future timber supply.
