I've done a lot of plants by seed in pots for transplant. I start them in the winter and grow them until transplanting in the fall. Great success doing this but it's quite a bit of work for a relatively small amount of return. I have about 20 acres I would like to thicken up by just planting seeds. I know oaks are difficult without protection as everything wants to eat acorns and seedlings. But what about other seeds? I would like to plant; Red Mulberry, ChokeCherry, and American Plum. They are all three native so I know they can grow here. Have any of you guys done mass seedings of tree/shrubs like this? I do not plan any protection what-so-ever.
