Loblolly Pine Trees, 2.5 years later

[@MsCmsh]

Hi!! I love loblolly pines and I’m about to plant some. I’d like to to know who far apart should I plant them and how close to the road? I do know they self prune the bottom limbs after they get older. Just wonder how close can I plant them from the road without possibly impeding traffic one day?

[@pineforest7528]

I own hardwood forest land but I'm planting loblolly trees between our house and the road for cover. For quite a few years they will provide excellent cover with their many branches and long, dense needles. I once planted a 7-acre former wheat field with loblolly trees and for over 10 years you couldn't see an inch into it.

Good afternoon? How long does it take for Pine tree to mature.

[@Buckswoodshop]

20-25 years

[@CTmoog]

I love pine trees. My Brother has a tree farm. Nice work man!

[@Buckswoodshop]

Nice! Thanks for watching

[@Stevennickel]

Man, this is motivating! They look great. I bet it was a lot nicer planting those in a pasture than cutover land!

[@rashmisinha9993]

Beautiful

[@tmo4330]

I hate when they curve but that means they are growing fast. Nice sub soil rows. Where did you get your seedlings!

[@baggd65]

Wow, time flies. They look great. Great up date.

[@Kwood10]

I just received 15 10-15 inch seedlings & planted them yesterday . Hope they do ok .

[@Anatoli_Vikulov]

That's great! Greetings from Russia!

[@RodderFiles]

very green ;)

[@Buckswoodshop]

We've had lots of rain. Thanks for watching.

[@scottsinfl]

Heck thats not that long you will be doing another planting with Cole. Its going to be full of deer this year there so hi.

[@angelvalenzuela8719]

Very nice , great job

[@captainjerk]

Awesome! Trees look great buddy! :D Lots to turn now!

[@edhuber3557]

Your growth rate is much better than ours (S. AR) but, as you say, we bought clearcut ground for replant. At 1:56, you might make a Xmas tree or decor or just cut/girdle the curved trunk trees at thinning ... not ST prospects.

[@plantbasedprepper]

Did you have to water all of those or did nature take it's course? I need to reforest the land I bought that had lost almost all the trees due to the bark beetle and so far Loblolly Pines seem like the quickest way to do it, however, I can't go up and water it. I have water at the property that is turned off at the moment.

[@Buckswoodshop]

Plant-Based Prepper No, we did not water them. Good luck

[@DeminicusSCA]

Loblolly means mud hole, in old tymey talk. AKA is a bottom tree that wants water and has little fire resistance. If you want a fast growing pine pick the right ones for your area. There are many good options, but I can't really recommend any with out knowing where you are. In my case planted short leaf on my rocky dryer hills , loblolly in the wet bottoms and flood plan pasture and some slash pines and pitch pine in the pasture areas too

[@pineforest7528]

@@DeminicusSCA It's good to plant a variety of species when possible or practical, as you did. I'm planting some shortleaf pine along with my loblolly. (Since shortleaf might have trouble competing, I'm planting it in a different area.) Shortleaf makes especially good wood.

[@modavis8119]

I love these trees 🎉❤

[@kathryncrocker1315]

Can we have an update on these? Just planted one today in my yard.

[@1970chevelle396]

Looks like you got a big yard.

[@Buckswoodshop]

Lots to mow!

[@xyooj96]

can livestock be farm along with these trees?

[@RustyGlovebox]

They are making great progress Matthew. Hope you had a great Birthday

[@Buckswoodshop]

Thank you sir.

[@loblollypine8223]

Do they grow in colder climates, like Canada?

[@Buckswoodshop]

I do not know.

[@Mopardude]

Dam those grow fast. I translated a pine sapling to a pot last summer but it didn't survive the pot over the winter. You have any tips how i can take other sapling I have growing wild and move them to a better place I would rather have a tree grow?

[@Buckswoodshop]

Mopardude I’d try transplanting it in the very early spring when it’s still in a dormant state.

[@santinomicallef7659]

Should I add fertilizers to grow them fast this way ?

[@Buckswoodshop]

We do not fertilize the trees. 👍

[@diydarkmatter]

cool matt you are a awesome member of the ffa . future fatwood of america association . lol god bless brother .

[@Buckswoodshop]

diy dark matter oh yeah!!!

[@BruceBoschek]

Will they eventually be used for lumber? Thanks for the tour. They're big.

[@Buckswoodshop]

When they are thinned, they will be used for pulp wood and osb board.

[@mostlymoparih5682]

Looks good. They grew fast in a short time.

[@Buckswoodshop]

Super quick.

[@lakesideranch]

Nice healthy stand there Matthew, How many acres are you growing on ?

[@Buckswoodshop]

lakesideranch Little over 470.

[@geargriden19]

Awesome update on the pines Buck!! *Have a good'nnn*

[@Buckswoodshop]

Thanks dude

[@micah_lee]

Why were these planted?

[@Buckswoodshop]

They will be harvested and used to make lumber and other wood products.

[@JerrysThisandThat]

Tree crop is looking good Matt.

[@Buckswoodshop]

Thanks Jerry

[@txsviking]

They are doing great!

[@Buckswoodshop]

So far so good, thanks for stopping by.

[@finpainter1]

wow growing fast.

[@Buckswoodshop]

They are!

[@M6706-u5y]

Great video!

[@Buckswoodshop]

Thanks

[@stephenp6411]

Update 2022?

[@pamtremblay5508]

A lot of these growing in the north, wondering why not plant as you take down, to keep nature growing.

[@Buckswoodshop]

Pam Tremblay This was a pasture and these are new trees. Once they are cleared we will replant.

[@robertcornelisse8664]

Great video. How much does it cost for a landowner to plant 1 acres of trees? I am looking for land to buy, and sometimes I see land for sale that's just cleared.

[@Buckswoodshop]

Mechanical planting is around $100 per acre plus the cost of the trees.

[@robertcornelisse8664]
