I'm a registered forest technician in Canada. AMA about trees.

>>733270470
Trees are made of wood?

>>733270470
How many Maple trees do you have to cut down every year?

wc level?

>>733270518
Mostly
>>733270527
None I'm not a faller.

>>733270563
wc?

>>733270565
fallers sound like cool guys

>>733270470
What you gunna do about the new regulations on soft wood lumber at the border?

I have English Ivy taking over a huge maple tree in my backyard, actually taking over everything in my yard. Anything I can do? I tried cutting the Ivy at the base of the tree but it did nothing.

>>733270470
Favorite Hardwood and softwood?

>>733270644
They have seen their brothers die. They have the 1000 m stare.

When I went out to BC, EVERY faller knew someone who died doing that job.

>>733270470
Is it fun?

>>733270470
What's the largest tree you've put up your ass?

>>733270687
not op here but applying boiling water to the roots and using salt and soap are two options. I had the same problem last year

>>733270470
Genuine question here. How can I kill a tree by making it seem it died from disease? I can't cut it, but I have access to it. And I work sort of undisturbed on it during night time.

>>733270685
I'm not up to date but I remember learning that it was pretty criminal.
>>733270687
>I tried cutting the Ivy at the base of the tree but it did nothing.
How long ago did you do that?
>>733270700
Maple/White pine
>>733270745
Can be.
>>733270778
Wood makes terrible dildos

>>733270470
What sort of training / education is required to become a forest technician?

have you ever met dendrophiles?

>>733270470
how to fuck a tree

>>733270706
that's awful
I'm going into the army but doubt I'd see any squad members die like fallers would

>>733270788
Roots of what? The tree? I cut all the roots of the Ivy off at the base of the tree.

Whats the fastest growing tree?

>>733270818
I cut the Ivy two years ago.

>>733270563
>tfw 73 WC and it was the highest level I had
I spend a lot of time staring at fake trees in my childhood.

how is this small layer called which helps to protect the tip of the root an makes it to slide easyer through the ground?

>>733270880
supposed to be the ivy roots. if not combine salt and soap in a spray bottle mixed well and spray the ivy.

>>733270470
Red oak. Will it stop growing upwards if the central trunk is cut, or at least slow it down?

>>733270818
>>733270685

Do you even have your tickets? Coast species? WRC?

>>733270470

oh i remember you. Hi what's up

how do you get syrup from a tree

Also how do I move a small tree from one garden to another without damaging it

>>733270805
do this but not so obvious. it will die (not op)

>>733270969
OK, I'll see what I can do. The Ivy is all over the tree. Huge bushes of it growing on the tree three stories tall

>>733270805
There's research done that speaking nicely to plants help them grow big and tall.
With that logic start talking shit to that piece of shit tree and I'm sure it'll die.

are tree roots longer than the part of the tree above ground? (for trees like the related pic)

I'd like to get a pet tree to my small apartment. Which breed would you recommend for first time owners?

>>733270470
If a mall is stationed a top of a mountain and after 5 years it shows the mountain is weakening and eroding due to the cut trees to make the building, is it smart to just remove every single tree possible to build another building to support the ild one falling? Another idea was to cement the ground, opinions OP

How did trees start? Like evolution wise.

How far north is the emerald ash borer expected to spread? What treatments have you witnessed and studied?

What type of trees are these specifically? Sorry for low quality pic. Ty ty

>>733271161
good luck man. half a gallon of water, 1 pound of salt just about, and maybe 1/8 of a cup of soap.
If you need more double everything :)

>>733271409
suneaters got bigger

>>733270470
do u cum on the treez?

>>733270470
Do trees have souls?

>>733270805
Hmm...maybe try giving it a disease and then complain that it's a hazard?
I'm sure there's something you can buy to put on the roots that will kill it but that might seem obvious...
>>733270826
2 year diploma program
>>733270831
Tons of them
>>733270854
Don't
>>733270871
It is like army hard work
>>733270916
In Canada? Larch
>>733270930
I don't know then. I guess you might have to physically remove it all.
>>733270951
That's beyond me
>>733270975
All hardwoods grow towards the light. If it's in a thick forest it will likely just have a bend where you killed that bud.
>>733270978
I have some certs...Tree marking, fire, chainsaw, winter survival and a few more I can't remember right now.
>>733270994
Not much. Do you have any more of that updog?
>>733271032
Tap it...
>>733271079
I dunno. Call an arborist
>>733271303
It's about equal
>>733271391
Ask the local nursery
>>733271399
Trees make ground solid?
>>733271409
I'm not really sure. I know that softwood are more ancient, and sexed trees are more contemporary.
>>733271447
Dunno
>>733271450
Looks like black spruce but the bark is too light. Is it a Canadian species?
>>733271615
maybe...
>>733271724
I like to think so

>>733270470
How many trees pilot nuclear missiles?

>>733271450
looks like pines

Does purpleheart grow anywhere besides South America. Can I grow it in New York?

Hi tree technician, I'm a Composite Technician in northern Minnesota building jets.

I have always wanted to work on sustainable forestry, work outdoors and stay active and in the field. And live in Canada, because it's nicer in every way that matters.

Want to trade lives?
You can spend all day in a gray factory with no windows surrounded by people who hate their jobs and their lives and get paid $15/hr to make luxury items for rich people.

I looked up "Maine trees" this popped up. I've seen similar trees in Washington state.

Thank you for the reply.

Have you ever tried to splice two trees together or grow one tree out of another one?

Part 2: What do you think would happen / would it work?

What was your on the job training like? I am about to start a timber sale prep position in northeastern Washington but was trained in the Eastern hardwoods of Pennsylvania. I'm a little concerned about the discrepancies and don't want to appear retarded, because I'm actually not.

>>733270470
Aren't all the carbon dioxide emissions good for the trees?

>>733272055
If you put it that way, no, but I would change places with an office worker who has a comparable life otherwise.
>>733272081
I've seen it done at a research forest, and I know that it's common practice in vineyards.

There's lot of fun stuff you can do.
>>733272111
Training was easy and fun.

Do you think bonsais are for faggots OP?
I'm a student and i'm planning to have a small plant in my apartment, but I don't know shit about plants, have any recommendation? something that's easy to take care of?

>>733271744
>>733271399
A portion of the mountain, which was believed to be solid ground was made into a road, the back side however was dependent on trees

>>733272005
hot

>>733272270
If I combined a soft and hardwood tree seeds to make a nice medium strength would it be consistent or hard in places and soft in places?

>>733272282
Bonsai trees are super cool
>>733272285
Erosion like that in mountainous regions is something we haven't really figured out.

Or rather we haven't figured it out and manage to still make a profit.
>>733272332
They wouldn't be compatible, and even if they were, it would just be a different type tree on the top than the bottom. They won't meld together to make some sort of super tree.

>>733271724
There is no such thing as souls anon. No ghosts, no demons, no angels, cherubs, saints, or underworld or heaven. All old superstitions from when people thought the entire universe was a stage built for them to play on.

Not only is there no sign of any functionality of this existing, but there is no sign of any structural framework in the universe to support this existing, and all the knowledge of the structural frameworks of this universe we have found make this kind of functionality extremely and increasingly unlikely to be possible.

Trees are just as valuable as any other life form, with or without souls. The less of them there are, the more valuable they are to the rest of us.

>>733270805
Just ask your neighbor to cut it or you will sue him.

>>733270470

Why aren't you hanging from one

If I put a tree seed in my ass and kept it in there long enough, do you think it would sprout? Considering there would be moisture. Could I grow an ass-tree?

>>733272628
Or, ask your neighbor to cut it down, then when he does, sue him anyway for ruining your view and shade and not asking the neighborhood first.

Profit + Profit = Max happiness.
your daily tip from b's resident jew here

>>733272840
You'll shit it out before anything would sprout.

If you want to try, stick an avocado pit up your ass.

>>733272489
>>733272285
Would the right choice be to cut every tree for another building? Or plant trees which will take decades and by then the building could have collapsed

>>733271102
Instead drill several holes in 45 degrees pointing down and pour battery acid on it.

>>733272894
I mean hypothetically if I didn't shit.

>>733272905
Plant and be more careful. Those forests are thousands of years old and it would be a crime (literally) to affect them so heavily.
>>733272945
You'd have to stand on your head for a couple weeks to a month.
