Hi everyone! Hit that like button if you enjoyed this video. Here is a link to the other tree planting video we made using greenhouse plugs: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6dzeb90a18w.html ... we also have a playlist of Christmas tree farming videos here: ru-vid.com/group/PLyubp1Fzo-JnHKP5p051hx7e8ZZKeH67G ... Thanks for watching!!!

Great video! I didn't know about the roots j rooting. Great information because my mother wants to take some Aspens home to Iowa next summer. Appreciate all the information!🌲😊

Fantastic job planting Christmas tree , great information my new friend:)

Great video. Would this same process worn for planting a row of bare root cedars for a privacy row?

How often do you water the seedlings?

Where can i order some pack of seeds?

Where can I buy these xmas trees you planted, I only need about 25.

The arcade music isn't necessary

We are starting a Christmas tree farm here in Kansas. I just planted the first 180 trees last week and your videos have been a great help to me. We are starting a RU-vid channel about our progress as well Thanks and keep up the great work

Does the root dip advertise a % success rate compared to just traditional transplanting?

Hi Woods Tree Farm!! I ordered bare root for the spring, it will be my first time planting them. I am curious about the fertilizer tablets you used? We are just starting out, and I’ve gotten conflicting info on fertilizer, especially the first year? Thanks for all your videos, they really are helpful 😁🎄

Great informative video. I'm looking to start out this year by planting a few hundred fir. I'm curious to know if you have noticed any difference between the plugs you planted vs. bareroot yet.

I'm curious to see how the plugs compare in their survival rate. I have never planted in the fall or planted the plugs and since you are doing both, I'm looking forward to how much of a difference there is. I just could never justify the price difference for the plugs plus our main supplier is only 15 minutes away and they don't raise plugs. Your root pruning, I think I would look for a different way, I really had a hard tome watching you getting your fingers so close to the ax. I'm all the time telling my helpers, I don't want blood on anything around here. Another tip would be to put your gel into the bucket your carrying you seedlings in. That way you don't need to drag an extra bucket thru the field. You also might want to go heavier with the gel, we always have another bucket setting up as we plant and once you are not seeing it sticking to the roots, we grab the next bucket and put more gel into the first. The idea behind it is that it works like little sponges and soaks up the moisture when it is available and the seedling grab from that when it is dry. Since you just went thru a dry summer, the more water you can retain at the roots, the better you survival rate may be. As always, really enjoyed the video. Keep up the great work.

That is interesting! Always something new to learn! I hope your back is doing well after planting those 200 trees! Thanks Phil!

Where can we order some trees, fertilizer tablets, and gel from. Want to make a small patch of trees for Bob-White quail habitat .

Must be online distortion... that dibble does not appear to be 12 inches long. 10" maybe.

this is a great video. I'm a new grower in TN. Sadlebridge Farm Christmas Trees and produce.

I try root my own Christmas tree

Hi Woods, Thank you SO much for all of the great videos. We just bought 80 acres in Colorado (surprisingly few Christmas tree farms!) and are getting started next Spring. I'm off for a couple weeks soon and I'll be binge watching everything you have. 😁

Do you have any tips on starting out brand new? Also, is the 5-7 year rate to maturity start from seed to mature? Does it take 5-7 years to grow from seed, or to grow from transplant plug?

Good information! Are the plugs more expensive (they seem easier to plant)?

Do you find it common for barefoot evergreens to drop needles and push new growth/needles?

Amazing job! Congratulations! Where did you get the transplants from?

Interesting process. Does future plans include you starting to sell small trees for others to grow?

Amazing video 👍

looks like you did a great job planting the trees good luck
