Hi, Mark, you're pretty well spot on in your assessment.
A note on herbicides. I don't have a knee-jerk reaction against them either, but I would caution that some very very valuable Hawaiian plants(taro in particular) is extremely sensitive even to residues, and it may be years before you can effectively plant a sprayed area. . .just be aware and cautious.
Biochar, biochar, biochar. There are no weed trees.
