I am in the process of having 16 acres in SW Washington clear-cut. I am trying to decide which Douglas Fir Seedling I want to use to replant. Was leaning towards the Weyerhaeuser Genetically improved. Because of its fast growth rate. My concern is that it will also mature faster and then start to deteriorate. I don't intend to cut this property again or if it does happen it will be a 40 or more years away. I want a tree that will grow fast to get back into a nice stand of timber. What are some opinions on this seedling or ideas of a better one? I will be planting mostly Fir, some cedar and a few hundred redwoods (for looks).
