takes ~10 years for these trees to reach 8' but yeah

Well you're in luck because the new transgenic pines grow to full size in 15 years now. It used to take 30 years to turn them over.

What kind of tree are they planting? Christmas trees?

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Probably a type of pine tree for harvest in the future.

6 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Yeah. not really a forest when trees are in straight lines and all one species. But good wind break. Or Ikea bookcase.

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I hunt row pines often and they may look more organized but they hold plenty of life.

Sure, but not a forest.

But if all they’re planting is one type of tree, it’ll inevitably turn back into grassland.

Looks like pine. Probably a tree plantation, designated to grow a certain span of time (20 - 30 years) and then be cut for pulp.

Could also be like the Parallel Forest in the Wichita Mountains of Oklahoma. Which is falling apart.

No, I happen to believe that weed, beer, alcohol, etc. aren't needed in order for someone to have a good time.

If you’d said “lots and lots of beer” there’d also be downvotes. There’s a difference of being sober and high, and while working sober works

Reforestation looks different depending on the ecosystem, but this seems like it could work for that, right?

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

This is likely a Christmas tree farm, or a commercial nursery farm, the trees are too close together for a forest to result

For too long I though it was reversed and I was trying to figure out how the ground opened.

6 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

I’m still trying to figure this out. How does that trench get there and how is it being pushed together?

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

The wheels push it back together but the plow opening it up is under the camera.

The ONLY case where that much negative camber is acceptable.

Does that make this implement stanced?

Technically yes.

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Is it positive camber you want when setting up a drift car?

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Negative. That's when the bottoms of the wheels point to the outside. But even then, it's only a couple of degrees, barely visible.

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Positive camber is essentially never used, except on old tractors.

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

And cargo vans, such as the Mercedes Sprinter, or the VW Crafter. Under weight, the wheels tend to be neutral.

Had this done on my place. Planted 6,000 trees in one day.

6 years ago | Likes 47 Dislikes 0

What kind of trees?

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Red pines and oaks - oaks are hard to plan in the open, so they are planted between the rows of pines.

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It's cheating if you don't throw your shovel into a rock at least 3 times before planting a tree

6 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Where? How did it go?

6 years ago | Likes 15 Dislikes 0

It was went really well. They did it really quick, and the trees have grown to about 16 feet.

Ontario - it was done as part of a tree planting program. I paid about half the cost.

Older tobacco planters used to work like this with around 4-5 people laying down facing the ground and placing the plants in rows

6 years ago | Likes 42 Dislikes 0

They had them that you sit just like the one here too.

Don't lay down anymore. Sit and a Ferris wheel with fingers takes the small plant from the person at the top and plants in into the furrow.

Farming Simulator has a decent lumberjacking experience. Except you start off with a chainsaw and not an axe.

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Yup. Industrial companies plant 33% more trees than they harvest. Thats not even including the regenerating sapplings they harvest.

6 years ago | Likes 31 Dislikes 3

Too bad they don't plant whole ecosystem that's been developing in the original forest for hundreds of years.

6 years ago | Likes 26 Dislikes 3

All lumber companies have their own land. They harvest lots of that land in growth increments. This way the only ecosystem ruined is the one

6 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 0

That moved in during the last growth. Also, if any protected wildlife moves in, they have to mark off the trees so they can't cut it

6 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

Industrial logging rarely takes place on old growth forests, at least in North America. Most old growth is protected land nowadays.

6 years ago | Likes 19 Dislikes 0

In my country nobody gives a shit about sustainability. If you tell them about intricate forest system they'd probably throw vodka at you.
