[QUOTE="MickThompson, post: 4553480, member: 3172"] In a word- nothing. You’ll get about 5% sunlight trickling through the canopy. It will do about 5% if what it could in the open on the same soils. The deer will wipe it out as soon as they find it. Work with what you have- kill/cut down trees, maybe do some burns, sell some timber, but if you are planting in the shade you are wasting seed. You can’t ”grow” bucks on 42 acres- their home ranges are 600+ acres, probably closer to 1000 in habitat like that. Your property needs to have something they can’t get on the neighbors so the deer visit you more often. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
