Reading a Tree's Stump: What Tree Growth Rings Can Tell Us About the History of a Forest
this changed how i look at trees. thank you for the educational content. is bamboo also not an individual? it shoots from rhizomes but isnt the whole plant a single organism?
Interesting! So which wins out in the case of say a Black Walnut that is pruned in Summer resulting in the sprouting of a bunch of new growth "suckers" or water sprouts? Is it the tree's response to force that growth even if "suckers" are likely to negatively impact the tree itself? It seems counterproductive to have a response that is a detriment to the tree itself if those suckers are hording nutrients that would benefit a stressed tree. You'd think that would be a response that would be shed through the evolutionary process? Or, maybe it is being shed as we watch, being that trees haven't really been pruned for all that long in the grand scheme of things. I've never thought of a tree facing such inner turmoil and conflict. 😄 It really is interesting to think about!
Colonies. Tree roots from different trees in a forest communicate with each other via mycelial networks. Does the root system influence which branches die?
The trees in our yard are absolutely loaded with pinecones. In late may/early June they were making pollen in OVERDRIVE, my allergies hadn’t been that bad in years and everything turned yellow overnight. The pines themselves were yellow, it was the weirdest thing. I’d never seen pines turn yellow with pollen.
I’m glad this showed up in my feed, I’ve preordered it. Can’t wait to read it!
Awesome...everytime I learn something new (about trees and plant life), I am inspired and add more joy and happiness into my creative life in my small art studio. Thank you for this beautiful video today. 🌲💜🌲💜🌲💜🌲
Hahs
One of the best videos I’ve seen on RUclips. This should get way more love.
Thanks!
Done :)
Thanks!
Hi Ethan. I have a question that has nothing to do with this video. It's about forest aesthetics. I started following you because of your work at Catamount in Williston. My sister & I were hiking in Niquette Bay yesterday, really appreciating the beauty of the woods. We compared them to Catamount. We love snowshoeing up to Cliffs of Insanity in the winter, but don't tend to go there in the summer. I think the woods on the way up to Indian Lookout are dark & ugly. Obviously, there is no diversity. But can you explain why that part of the woods is so depressing? (Not the part you worked on.) Thanks. Jennifer from Burlington.
Hmmm I think I know the area you’re talking about. That area is super unhealthy - a young forest of unhealthy white pine trees, with an extreme invasive plant problem. Maybe that’s what you’re tuning into!
They are growing more and more ALLLLL over our backyard! INVASIVE! how we stop it and get our lawn back?
How true...
And on a good day foresters and loggers learn something from each other. It’s ok for a young, know it all forester to learn something practical from a logger and it’s ok for a stubborn old logger to learn something new from a forester. It happens
Yeah, a wild red oak seedling grew in my yard, instead of mowing it down I placed a barrier around it to protect it from deers and a few days ago it overcame transplant shock and started growing leaves
it doesn't take much to move hundreds if not thousands gallons of water off the trail
But the NRCS gives grants to landowners to do this very thing. For example, if you're clearing a trail they see a brush pile as more beneficial to wildlife than burning or chipping it. Would you disagree?
More beneficial than burning or chipping - but you also don’t need to burn or chip or pile. Just leave the brush there
But that can be a fire magnet when it is dry.
@@HowToLoveAForestyeah I think everyone is just gonna keep making brush piles. Especially when you consider that naturally dead trees still exist outside of the area there are trails or fields
Love the content. Commenting for the algorithm la la la la la
Appreciate it!
True story: at summer camp, i decided to stop caring and for some reason i didn't get bit the rest of the summer. I question if we release a chemichal which attracts them if you start becoming agitated about it.
Dude are you ok
Good question
Yeah you've been in the woods too long
Lol
No truer words have ever been spoken 👏👏
Try jewell weed
Watch for ticks bro!!!
DEET
You could wear sleeves and a face net.
A habituated bear 🐻 is a fed bear, and a fed bear 🐻 is a ☠️ 🐻 😢
Unfortunately I'm the one people zone out on.
Lol
We talking Trump's guilt for the countless crimes against us & lies? Or Actually talking about birds? That's an honest question I really don't know
Actually birds bub
🤣🤣🤣 yep, then i start telling them what kind of bird it is 🤣
I take the 5th ?
Lol.. I loooove this 😂 🐦 🦜 🦢 🦚
This is stupid
Yep!
We Love it😅
?
Lol
Did somebody say bird... I was chasing a squirrel
Facts. Very good explanation.
Black bears are most congenial. Won’t come after you as long as you’re not a threat to their cubs. They are trophy hunted in many states. Just protect them. They are not grizzly or brown or polar that don’t need a reason to attack.
Hmmm. Do you feel that way about bears? 😂😮
Haha they are awfull in ontario its like a swarm of swasps but they have to eat too thats what i keep telling the logger 😅😅
Love your thought process.
When is Oceans thirteen coming out bro? I been waiting since a kid
Lol
Better than ticks and chiggers!
So true
Chigga, please!
Love it
great advice!!!!
you're a good man! God bless the bears!
I just saw your short on a black bear getting into your compost. It was refreshing to hear your take on wildlife vs the trend of people intentionally attracting wildlife with food to create YT content.
make sure you know what kind of bear you're screaming at though. Grizzly's are more dangerous and tend to be more hostile
Sure - we don’t have those here tho
@HowToLoveAForest true but where is "here"? You're on the internet now 😅
thnks for sharing logic and simple ways to help bears
Nah I can’t be the only one who heard big ass black man at first
The bears probably say the same shit amongst themselves!
Lol
Like the sign says... DONT FEED THE BEAR❗️
