Planted and fertilised about 1m eucalypts on the NSW north coast 20 years ago with the good old pottiputki. Very strong and reliable tool. Those trees are 25m tall now.
@@blank.9301 You obviously never planted trees before.... These guys might plant 1000 tree a day, whereas most people would plant 3000-6000 trees a day in beautiful trenched land like that
@@Artyomthewalrus That's wrong. Most people can plant 1000 trees in a 6 hour day. That's not even a great looking area. Pro planters are very fast indeed, and they can do 2000-3000 in a day, but not over 3000 on average...
@@HoraceKLai I can plant a tree every 4-5 seconds with a shovel, these guys are going around 20 seconds a tree (admittedly, they look like they are going slow on purpose. I only know one planter who planted that slow, and he had serious mental health issues) My guess based of their outfits and whatnot is that they would be office workers for the manufacturer who have never planted a tree before doing this video. I have never seen land that is that flat, has such straight trenches, no fallen logs, so I could most definitely do a whole lot better than 4-5 seconds a tree in the area they are planting that's the difference between 180 trees an hour and 600-800, not a small difference. In beautiful flat trenched land with exposed dirt everywhere I would plant 5000-6000 trees a day, these guys might plant 1000.I do really want to try one of these out to see if you can work at a decent pace with them because my back is fucked.
@@Artyomthewalrus they are planting a tree every 10-15 seconds and they seem to have a good pace. The thing is to find the right pace without overworking yourself otherwise you will get very tired by lunch and efficiency will go down. The worst thing while planting small trees is bending down. Our knees and backs get tired. This tool is a good solution.
@@erkanaltinsoy I wouldn't accept planting a tree every 15 seconds, that's only 240 an hour, 2000ish a day. And this is creamy trenched land to boot. I plant for money, not a vacation. I am assuming someone who was actually going for numbers could go faster than these blokes, so I would consider trying one out to aid my back/knees, but not if it cuts my earnings in half. Yes, I lose steam later into the day, but my slow pace in rough unscarified land at the end of the day is still faster than their pace here.
This is hilarious. After a logging operation the soil is compacted from heavy machinery; not to mention all the slash laying around. These things would never open up!
That's exactly why this site uses the smallest European machines possible, probably with tracks and scarifies it after the harvesting operation. 100% you're from the US. This is hilarious!
