Forestry Trees


I've been messing around with forestry trees the last few days, and got frustrated that I couldn't find anyone else sharing what they're doing.

Here's what I'm currently growing. Walnut, Kapok and Red Spruce.

The walnut are the large shorter trees, have 2x2 stump. They dropped when I was growing silver lime-apple oak hybrids, and cherry trees.

The kapok trees are the really tall ones. I was growing all sorts when they dropped, so no idea who their parents are.

Dark green ones are the red spruces. Standard.

Industrial bees are doing the pollinating. They've been inoculated to be fast workers, with an elongated life. They're also nocturnal and strong fliers. (Tolerate the rain.) They have also been acclimatized to tolerate +/- 3 both conditions.

We'll see where this blog goes. I might pretty it up if I actually stick at it. :)
