Direct sowing of deciduous trees below the canopy of coniferous stands has proven to be a very economical method for converting pure stands into mixed stands. However, many direct sowing of beech (Fagus sylvatica) seeds provided unsatisfactory results without a clear explanation for this lack of success.
