Had a habitat specialist/forester tour my Ohio property yesterday. Im out west so didnt get to visit with him and my father was having some medical complications so he couldnt walk with the gentleman. He stressed that he was very concerned about invasives. The location where i was planning on dropping a pocket of about 3/4 acre trees so i could open the canopy to get sun down and plant my incoming crabapples has a lot of invasive grass. I dont have the name yet of this particular grass as im waiting on his write up but i did see it when i was hunting this year and its taken over below where all my dead ash trees are and oit powerline.
My plan was to plant the new trees in extension of my current otchard and get some clover on the ground.
How would you guys reccomend tackling this issue? Still plant it? From a tactical standpoint I believe this is the absolute best place for the new trees. My old man can spray ahead of the planting when he drops the timber. I also have tubes for all of the trees that could allow for protection if he has to continue to spray?
Any help is appreciated!
