[QUOTE="treefarmer, post: 4833714, member: 10041"] A backpack sprayer with basal bark herbicide and oil work well on thin skinned trees like beech - maybe up to 4" or 6"? Co-op likely sells the generic version of what you're looking for. I've had good success buying bare root trees and shrubs from the State Nursery in Delano (shipped free to your county). planttntrees.org will take you to their website (order early, they sell out of most). I've had great luck with their Persimmon, Shortleaf Pine and Beauty Berry shrubs. I've tried a number of other trees and shrubs but my soils just don't work for them. Southern Crabapple and hybrid chestnut might be good for you. Contact your TN Div. of Forestry "Area Forester" Christy Gearhiser at 931-796-4313 who works out of Hohenwald. Christy can give you a free walk on your property and give you suggestions on herbicide, what trees to keep and kill to meet your objectives. My hour spent with the Area Forester was the best thing I did and gave me a path to success in Humphreys County. [/QUOTE]
