After wind calamity in 2004 there arose extensive works in artificial forest regeneration that forced foresters to take rational steps using the latest results of forest science. Decision-making about the success or failure of artificial forest regeneration starts already in forest nursery. Observance of physiological quality (morphological and genetic) of planting stock as well as observance of technological discipline in planting play a decisive role in following steps taken within reforestation works. One of possibilities to reach also on calamity clearings the least possible los ses after reforestation is using higher percent of containerised plants. Direct sowing is another possibility of the best possible use of seed after very extensive calamities on newly arisen vast clearings. Progressive technology of sowing into vegetation cells that has been tested on calamity clearings in the Tatra Mts. National Park using II forest tree species (Norway spruce, European larch, Scots pine, silver for, European beech, sycamore maple, oak, alder, Swiss stone pine and ash) seems to be one of suitable procedures of artificial forest regeneration mainly if there is insufficient amount of planting stock.
