Funky trees from today’s coppicing work.
Anyone care to guess how old that ash stool is in the first image? (top left) the clue is in the width of the base, not the upright.

i believe a while back you mentioned that certain trees benefit from being cut but i cannot find the post? could you elaborate on that bc im Fascinated (curious eyes emoji)
That's coppicing! Funny you mention it actually, the next biome research post I'm gonna make (in the style of the moorland one) is British forests. It's not only good for an individual tree, coppiced woodland is like moorland in that it's an anthropogenic area that becomes extremely important for several animals. Butterflies, bluebells, nightjars...
But I'm getting ahead of myself. To coppice a tree, you cut it down to its stem, and then allow it to sprout back for a number of years. The length of time depends on the species and purpose you want the wood for. You can make perfect, straight poles for tools, beams for construction, bundles for firewood...
A coppiced tree does not die of old age. They can live forever, and produce wood for GENERATIONS. No need to clean-cut and devastate a woodland!
What's good about coppiced woodland is that it leaves the canopy clear. Clear canopy = sexy, sexy understorey. Lots of sunlight comes through which allows the growth of low-laying plants and berry bushes, lots of places for animals to eat and hide.
Downside tho is that if you don't come back and manage your beautifully coppiced grove, you will end up with a thick canopy of trees all the same age, blocking out the sun. That's bad. You're gonna see a recurring theme in all of this research that a TON of biomes in the UK REQUIRE human management and have really been suffering without proper stewardship.
Basically, coppicing without ongoing human management just results in a plantation (derogatory) with extra steps.
Lake cats did a lot more coppicing than modern Clan cats. Modern Clan cats don't really have the tools to cut hard trees like beech and hornbeam; they can only manage softer, thinner ones like birch and alder with their claws and stone tools. It's a lost art.

Daisugi, Growing Trees Out of Other Trees?
Daisugi, Growing Trees Out of Other Trees?
Save the Trees!
We know that trees are our natural air filters, provide oxygen, water conservation, soil preservation, and support wildlife. Growing trees out of other trees? Seems like it is impossible? When I read about this method and saw images of this process, I thought, “Surely this has to be Photoshopped.” Some think that this method is a hoax and not possible. Yet such tree cultivation is…

Coppice To Renovate Overgrown Shrubbery
Coppicing stimulates vigorous new basal growth.
Pollarding is extreme pruning. It removes all but the most substantial of limbs and trunks. Coppicing is even more extreme. It leaves only stumps above ground. Both are common and respected arboricultural techniques outside America. However, they are vilified here. Actually, very few arborists here know how to pollard and coppice properly, or admit…

The good old days when it was acceptable to cement glass bottles onto the tops of brickwalls then smash the glass to leave nasty jagged, glass shards embedded to deter or injure any trespassers from climbing over the wall 😲 Work smart - work efficency 🙂 Contact us to discuss your arboricultural requirements
