Book Description
Excerpt from Genetics of Slash Pine Slash pine is used for pulp, lumber, poles, and Oleoresin (gum naval stores) production. It is a favorite of forest managers because it is easy to plant and can be handled in pure, even-aged stands with rotation ages as low as 20 to 25 years, in addition to having high wood utility. Slash pine is widely planted within its range and in adjoining areas. It has also been planted successfully in southern Africa, South America, and Australia. Slash pine is strongly multi-nodal in growth habit and begins rapid height growth soon after planting. Crown closure occurs at an early age, and natural pruning takes place even at wide spacing; consequently, trees reach commercial size and quality in a few years. Seed production is high and consistent at ages 10 to 15 years if crowns are large. Volume growth is strongly influenced by site conditions, but the species grows well near sea level on soils which are seasonally water saturated and on drier soils at higher eleva tions in the Coastal Plain. In volume growth, it ranks among the highest of all southern pines. In the southern part of the slash pine range, summer rainfall is very high and the winter rainfall is very low, but in the northern and western parts the seasonal distribution of rainfall is much more equally divided.
