I did a simple experiment with trees: 5 species (sp) and two management (trt). I assessed the diameter (diam) through the time (month=1:24) and I'm interesting in the factors interaction effect, I mean if the management is suitable for some species.

The dataset has some limitations since it is not balanced, so in 2 out of 10 factors combinations (sp*trt) I have 4 trees (subjects) and for the rest there are 5 trees:

       sp    trt trees
1       A      L     5
2       A      W     5
3       B      L     5
4       B      W     5
5       C      L     5
6       C      W     5
7       P      L     4
8       P      W     5
9       T      L     5
10      T      W     4

I fitted the following model:

m1 <- lmer(diam ~ trt * sp * month + (1|tree), data = dat1)

I'm not sure if I'm doing right, mainly if the model is right...

If the model is correct, and the anova is the following table:

Analysis of Variance Table
             Df  Sum Sq Mean Sq F value
trt           1 0.12110 0.12110 17.3756
sp            4 0.06761 0.01690  2.4251
month         1 0.33917 0.33917 48.6659
trt:sp        4 0.00436 0.00109  0.1564
