Forest growth conditions | Soil | Recommended methods of forest restoration | Number of thinning operations | Planting density of Scots pine (trees/ha) | Harvest age (years) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
А1—dry coniferous forest | Dry sand | Pine undergrowth conservation, bare soil with conservation of seed bearers (obligatory); planting and sowing in the furrows | 3 | 8000 | 81–100 |
А2—fresh coniferous forest | Fresh sand | Pine undergrowth conservation, bare soil with conservation of seed bearers (obligatory); planting in fire lines | 3–4 | 5500–6000 | 81–100 |
В2—fresh subor, i.e. mixed pine forests with birch | Fresh sandy loam (10–15 % loam) | Pine undergrowth conservation; pine planting in the furrows and in fire lines | 3–4 | 4000–6000 | 81–100 |
С2—fresh suramen, i.e. mixed spruce and deciduous forest | Fresh clay loam (20–40 % loam) | Pine undergrowth conservation; pine planting in the furrows and in fire lines | 3–4 | 4000 | 81–100 |
