I joined Arbor Day foundation in 2008. They sent a pack of trees and I got to pick ten additional trees. I picked all Sawtooths.
Planted as seedlings. Twigs about 20" tall. As of now they are probably 30'+ with the base as big as my thigh. Started having sparse acorns about 2017. This year they were absolutely loaded.
When they were young, I put fence around them to keep deer away. Used roundup carefully to keep weeds away from the tree. I had some five gallon containers with a top on them. I'd drill a couple of small holes in the bottom. Fill them up with water and place them at the base. When they got about 6-8' tall in 2010/2011, I got them tree fertilizer packs and dug holes around the root line.
That is all I did with them. The turkey and deer really like them. I am very pleased with them.
