A replicated study was established in northern Wisconsin in 1990 to determine the effect of overstory density and understory competition on the performance of bareroot and containerized northern red oak seedlings on dry-mesic sites. The relationship between seedling performance and the number of first-order lateral roots on the seedlings was also tested. Seedling performance was evaluated under 3 overstory densities each ha a clearcut 25 and 50 crown covers in combination with and without understory vegetation control with herbicide. Height growth was greater for containerized seedlings than bareroot stock after 2 and 3 growing seasons. After 2 yr seedling growth was greatest in the sprayed clearcut plots but was only slightly greater than the unsprayed plots under the 25 crown cover bareroot vs cm and containerized vs cm respectively . After 3 yr seedling height growth was significantly greater in the unsprayed plots under the 25 crown cover for both the bareroot and containerized seedlings when compared to all other overstory understory treatment combinations examined in the study. Early performance results suggest that the light shelterwood silvicultural method e 25 crown cover without chemical control of vegetation is preferred for establishing northern red oak on dry-mesic sites when compared to the more traditional management schemes.
