- Intervention effect Ground treatments influenced leaf area and nutrient composition, shoot traits, and root traits.
- Intervention effect Partial weed cover in the first year severely reduced growth for subsequent years.
- Intervention effect A higher nitrogen rate did not reduce the persistent weed-associated growth loss.
- Intervention effect A four-foot square kept weed-free with simazine enabled grassed trees to grow comparably to clean-cultivated trees.
- Intervention effect Mulch produced the most vigorous trees.
- Mechanism The authors considered soil moisture availability the main factor in tree establishment.
