I have a 16 acre field that I plan to slowly turn into deer and upland habitat to include hedgerows, oak, persimmon and switchgrass, along with some strips to plant as I see fit. I eany to experiment with growing oaks from seed. These pictured are abundant near the house. My hardwoods are mostly poplar and gum with some oaks around the edges. Could someone help me with ID and maybe details as to which may grow faster and/or produce more mast. I will likely purchase seedlings to transplant in the future, but I understand they can be finicky with root development. Next year I intend to disc strips and plant the acorns directly. Its still being hayed so I wont do that this year. Instead Im going to try and grow seedlings in pot to transplant next spring.
