What a great thing to do. Plant a whole wood and then watch it mature as you also grow older. Just imagine this wooded area in 20 years. You can say, i planted that. Cracking idea. Looking forward to the far future updates.
Good work Daggerwin! Really enjoying the content on all the channels! Always a good way to spend half an hour or so with a cup of tea watching your content!
Think you will need to do some thinning out in a few years. Oaks and willows I would plant 10m apart from the start. Oaks will get swamped by canopy of the other trees due to being slow growing. Also don't forget to shear the Norway spruce trees to make a "so called" Christmas tree. Just shape like a cone, but don't cut the leader as will stunt its growth. White willows are good for cricket bats after about 10 years growth. Nice to see some trees being planted though. Too many cut down and not replaced.
I realy like that you do this for nature. I i had the money i would do that to but i havent.. Are you going to dig a pond in your forrest? And how much hectare or acre is this piece of land.
Hi Dags, great video. I do have a question tho, why did you not mulch the lawn before planting trees? Now you got 250 trees to go around :D Anyways love your vids, keep up the good work ;)
Mainly because I needed to get the trees in the ground as once they have been ordered they can't really be sat around. Also it doesn't really bother me because when the grass grows I will have to cut around all the trees anyway.
Easter special How about doing something for the arctic tractor event that takes place in April 21-22 2019 by farm photography and versatile farm of tamworth near staffordshire It’s a plowing event of articulated tractors from the 70 to modern day have them work on two or three fields and plant potatoes and sugar beats use the roper pack to do the harvest could be a lot fun and people have fun using different equipment from plowing to cultivating and planting the crops to harvest the crops
I think it's the correct density for a thick wool and since some may die in the first crucial year. Like you said thinning them out is also a possibility
If you do keep to this project and dont forget about them after about 7 years most trees can be thinned and sold to a mill for making lumber/pulp. So maybe you can make your money back. MAKING MONEY AND BEING GREEN.
You should cover the roots of bare whip trees otherwise they be damaged from the wind. Think the wind burns them in some way don’t quote me on that though
Maybe when the trees will be grown it might be a small version of a forest or a full version of a forest it will depend on the size of when the trees will be fully grown.
We plant trees in our woods in Dartmouth Devon and we use bio degrade ale tree shelter that have little holes for little birds eg robins to clime out if they get stuck.we planted 600 over a day in the rain
Daggerwin Extra didn't expect u to reply at all let alone that quick 😂 haha and oh so what are u doing them and who owns that land? (I'm new to ur extra channel I normally watch the gaming one)
Haha :) It is my land but it's not that much, I own it for this reason, to improve nature in the area. It's also nice to have some more space for my compact tractor videos :)

It's an incredible feeling! Thanks :)
I'm sure it is! Cheers Daggerwin, all the best
wow. you basically planted a small forest. good job!
Coming along well... I wish we had more people like you here in the U.S. that cares about forestry and wildlife.
Nice to see so many trees being planted. Look forward to seeing your updates on them.
love what your doing daggerwin i think you are doing the best for the country and wildlife.
Looks really good. So nice to see someone planting trees instead of tearing them down.
Thanks for doung your part Britain and Scotland needs more tree cover. It is as bare as a grocery store before a hurricane.
I've planted thousands of trees, and it's a wonderful feeling to see them slowly turn into a forest! Give yourself a pat on the back!
Thanks :)
Hi! You're doing such a great thing for wildlife. We just subscribed and we love your videos.
Good work Daggerwin! Really enjoying the content on all the channels! Always a good way to spend half an hour or so with a cup of tea watching your content!
It’s good to see someone looking after the wilderness great vid daggerwin keep it up
Very nice. It's great to see people looking after nature. I saw a New Holland 8340 on Lincoln Road yesterday near Nettleham.
Notch planting whips nice! Also you should always keep the whips to 1 stem to avoid competition and future problems
This is an awsome thing to do Daggerwin. Nicely done and looks great.
Nice Stihl trimmer! Nice choice.
FS 19 looking awesome :)
not yet
Wow dude your a boss!! I couldn't of done it !
Good work be interesting to see the progress over the years
Nice video! Good cause. It has been 6 years, can you maybe post an update how the forest looks now?
Great video daggerwin it is good to see that you are caring for nature and you have inspiration for my own nature area
Any chance of a little update would love to see the difference 😃

We plant here in finland with like a planting pipe close to thousand a day.
When will you be doing a model farm video
You should put some mulch/wood chip around the base the trees it’ll really help them along!
Good job
Nice video I like this series as it shows more landscaping then actual farming and there isn’t much landscaping on RUclips so keep up the good videos
I realy like that you do this for nature. I i had the money i would do that to but i havent.. Are you going to dig a pond in your forrest? And how much hectare or acre is this piece of land.
Thanks, no there won't be a pond. The trees cover roughly 2 acres
You should dig a pond
How far apart do you plant them and are they random or uniformed planting
Looks very good daggerwin. Is there any reason to you doing this. Think it’s great that you are
Was that land an old garden nursery, years ago? Cause of all the plant pots
love yor vids daggerwin like real life videos the best so keep on doing it.
what are you planning to do with the area once you have finished with it? make it a public area
Did it cost quite a bit for all or did you get a deal since you bought a quantity
R u doing machinery restorer and if
U are will u do a kubota b7200
Wonderful job. This video is two months old so I'm late watching.
are you gonna continue with the model farm series?
Sorry if I’ve missed it but have u done a update of these trees?
Wow you planted so meny trees well done daggerwin
Cool 👍
When ever the grass grows where I live I'm going to do vlogs like this plus mowing just about every weekend my self
How long did it take you to plant all the trees
Was the attachment on the weed wiper a saw blade?
i'm sorta new to the channel. What's the purpose for planting a field full of trees? Is it a source of lumber ect?
It's to improve wildlife and nature in the area
Hi Dags, great video. I do have a question tho, why did you not mulch the lawn before planting trees? Now you got 250 trees to go around :D Anyways love your vids, keep up the good work ;)

Okay, thats understandable, looking forward to the mowing video! :)
When is the next model farm video happening it was a great series and I miss it
Easter special

When I read the thumbnail I was thinking of fs17, and I thought 250 trees " is that all " your not even trying 😁😁. Nice video 👍
lol
Hey dagger win don't you think you over planted? Or are you planning on thinning trees as they get older
I think it's the correct density for a thick wool and since some may die in the first crucial year. Like you said thinning them out is also a possibility
If you do keep to this project and dont forget about them after about 7 years most trees can be thinned and sold to a mill for making lumber/pulp. So maybe you can make your money back. MAKING MONEY AND BEING GREEN.
Daggerwin Yea some will always die. But i hope this year isnt gonna be dry because the grass will take away a lot of water in the ground.
What’s your plan for this area?
You should cover the roots of bare whip trees otherwise they be damaged from the wind. Think the wind burns them in some way don’t quote me on that though
Maybe when the trees will be grown it might be a small version of a forest or a full version of a forest it will depend on the size of when the trees will be fully grown.
Good video who was recording
Ole Bunten it's either daggerwin or his tripod
When is the model farm coming back
Do you think you will plant more trees
You should do updates every two months
You already have spring we still have snow.
Now to buy a Scorpion! lol
Yay 😄
We plant trees in our woods in Dartmouth Devon and we use bio degrade ale tree shelter that have little holes for little birds eg robins to clime out if they get stuck.we planted 600 over a day in the rain
I love you😄😇😍
How come you didn't plant sickamores
How's filming?
I see you love the natuur
Really enjoyed this video daggerwin
Wood cutters: its free real estate
Is it live commentary
What ever you do don't plant silver maple, they lose many branches and over produce saplings
What kind of trees are they ????
You might want to actually look at the whole video as he tells you what has been planted.
Geoff Fletcher
Ok
First
Daggerwin is left handed
5:39
Thx wind lol
Hi daggerwin
Hi
Why did you do this and not sell the grass every year to a farmer ?
It took 5 people 2-3 hours to plant 100 hawthorn plants
Your making a Forrest now dagger
Daggers a farmer irl?
nope
Daggerwin Extra didn't expect u to reply at all let alone that quick 😂 haha and oh so what are u doing them and who owns that land? (I'm new to ur extra channel I normally watch the gaming one)
Haha :) It is my land but it's not that much, I own it for this reason, to improve nature in the area. It's also nice to have some more space for my compact tractor videos :)
Daggerwin Extra oh ok cool and improving the environment👍👌 very good
FS 2001 irl update 😂

Plz do a face reveal
Farming simulator Real life XD or
Forming simulator year 2030 😂😂🤣
Can you yos your trater
WHY!!?? Why do you do it?
Why not?
Русские есть?
Aye your a grafter
1:02 buy a husqvarna instead
Really dont see the point, could have done anything with the land, but u plant trees llf
Man me and my dad,his friend. And we planted about 583 I think
Did you have to get permission of any kind to plant a forest like this?
What a waste of land I could build a few cattle shed on that land
I don't think any project which is designed to improve nature could be called "a waste of land". Just my opinion though...
I agree,i would have ripped it up in a matter of seconds of me buying the land!
Hey daggerwin can u possibly watch my vids and give me a shout out I do farming simulator my channel is gamer dog 42 thank you
Inspired me not inspiration
