Planting beds of mounded organic residues and mineral soils were higher in 

 organic content and moisture content, and were lower in bulk density, than forest 

 soils that had been scalped in preparation for planting. Temperatures were similar on 

 all treatments. Superior physical qualities of planting beds may enhance survival and 

 growth of conifers planted on marginal sites in the Inland Northwest.
