Man i love your videos. Keep them coming

Awesome presentation

Thanks for sharing

Hi

I learned a lot from this. Thank you.

This is another way for the climate cult in conjunction with world government organizations to extract tax revenue from corporations in the name of saving the planet and redistributing some of the revenue to the poor. This is why the elites are buying land now, which drives up the cost for everyone else. I am not the least bit interested in signing a contract to trade control of my land for $100 per year.

Great to see you back David! Excellent presentation!

Ive only just recently started getting interested in forestry and found this channel, binging through the videos, i was saddened to see that it had ended before i found it. I can’t believe it’s back now, thank you professor, i’m very excited to see what you have in store for us

Thanks for bringing this series back. I find it extremely informative and look forward to seeing your next video.

This is SO without insight as I see this. Of course you get all theese problems if you treat your forrest as a feedlot with to many animals on a to small space! We have for many 100 of years let all our livestock out in the forrest, mountains etc. Several 100 000 of them every year (in Norway) to take advantage of the forrage there. And there is NO problems like described here. Actually the problem now is more that the wilderness is growing to a shrub land many places due to that the farmers tend to keep their animals at the farm and that it is a decrease of rproducers, specialle small producers locally. The monetary politics and demand for low cost food squeeses farmer sto be "effective and productive"...... In the beginning and end of sesaoons we have the livstock on the farm premises - beeing sure to MOVE the animals BEFORE they damage anythhing. If one makes sure they have more than plenty of food theese problems do NOT occur. This all has to do with understannding them different pieces and scale in the production adapting to what is natural. Everything goes wrong if it is overdone in some way. What is shown her and the suggestions here are onnly for those who cant scale and adapt their operation to a regenerative (sustainable??) way. Look at other that have practiced this well for many years like this one: th-cam.com/video/isFLh5PzL78/w-d-xo.html

Pretty good video. Covered some questions I had.

Femelschlag! 🌳😁

The link is broken anyway to get an updated one?

Darn...wish i considered this 10 years ago!

I have been using the double girdle in my hardwood stand in upstate New York for over 50 years. I find that it works best from July 1st to leaf drop. Your video's are very educational.

thank you!!! i’ve been thinking about taking a dendrology class and this definitely helped my decision positively. love the way you explain and teach!

Is there a new link to the publication? This link yields a "Not Found" error.

Just came across your channel. Great material and presentation. Sorry to hear this may be the last one

Cool video man thank you 👍

Thank you David! I hate that this is your last presentation. I have enjoyed watching and learned a great deal from your Back Porch Forestry series of video's. Hope you will reconsider and continue them in the future. This last presentation I believe will be very useful in deciding what trees and how to cut them in the future when our carbon sequestration contract allows for cutting.

thank you David, Ive appreciated your channel

Wonderful presentation. One point that is worth mentioning is that Mockernut hickory can have 7 leaflets quite often.

❤I like that

Thanks for this module

Wow! Amazing video and explanation of it all! Thank you!!!

If your top priority is wildlife, should you leave some mature Beech trees?

Best oak info I've ever heard!!! Heavy crop years deplete nitrogen? So would adding nitrogen around the base help?

What a great way to pique my interest in something so complex - thank you for the knowledge :)

Very good. Thank you.

Thank you very much

Thank you for your thoughtful presentation I’m always trying to learn more about Hickory trees. Please re-check your information about Hickory being used for fence posts. Maybe some confusion or mixup with black locust which is extremely durable and makes excellent fence posts. Hickory on the other hand though hard and strong and tough is very susceptible to rot and decay and would not last long in the ground much less lying on top of the ground.

Could you identify a hickory tree in Texas by a picture of the leaves and nut? It has 5 leaflets, very hard nut shell, and the bark isn’t shaggy. I can’t figure out what it is.

Great video, I really enjoy your BPF series. As you mentioned logging jobs always look messy, especially to the untrained eye. Landowners should keep in mind that the quality of a finished logging job varies greatly between loggers. A good logger will treat your land with respect and leave things neat and tidy, by logging standards. Tops cut down evenly, smaller damaged trees and stalks felled, any ruts or roads used for skidding smoothed over, etc. If I were a landowner selling my timber, I would want to see previous jobs completed by the crew harvesting before I let them work on my property. If long term timber management and a quality logging job are your priorities, make sure you use a logger with a proven track record of responsible logging practices. Sometimes the highest bidder does not perform the highest quality job.

Informative. Going to show my wife this to hopefully ease the pain after our harvest

Given all the renewable products, Bamboo, Hemp, and the Environmental crisis, there should be NO TREES cuT down.

Excellent presentation. The photos illustrate how the erosion control measures should be implemented to protect the land after a harvest. Thanks!

This was fantastic! I live in TN and wanted to learn more about our Hickories so this was just what I needed! I didn't know we had 10 different species. I only knew about Shagbark and Mockernut previous to this video and I didn't know that Pecan was also technically a Hickory so to learn about all of the others was great! I'm going to try and apply what I've learned when I'm out in the field. Great work!

Can a shagbark not have shaggy bark?

Thanks so much for this. This is exactly the type of education I've been looking for, in order to help manage my 42 acres of Missouri hardwoods!

Thank you for this information.

I want to tell you how much I've appreciated these videos. As a new woods owner I want to educate myself and you provide information in such easily understandable way. Thank you.

Thank you Dr. Mercker, always enjoy your presentations. The wife and I also enjoyed the Forestry Field Day recently held in Hohenwald put on by you, Dr. Harper, & support staff. The chicken was delicious! In addition to the information you presented in this video, we have found that one of the best ways to attract a wide range of wildlife is to introduce and maintain a number of honey bee hives in the areas you want more wildlife. The honey bees will pollenate just about everything to the Nth degree foraging for pollen, nectar, and saps for propolis. The increase in mast of all sorts is shocking, especially with blackberries, persimmons, elderberry, and many other plant species.

@8:30 Timestamp for those who what to difference between the hickories, but already know what a hickory is.

Thank you for this. We are new to East TN and would love to be able to identify all the amazing species of trees that make our walks so beautiful. Also thanks for sharing the publication I am printing it out now!

Dr. Mercer, question for you? I have tried a number of various methods of planting acorns to stimulate oak tree sapplings in areas that have large amounts of sunlight but need trees. Is it better to just broadcast the acorns on the ground after I have germinated them and let Mother Nature handle the rest, or should I plant them just under the soil surface about and inch? When hiking through our forests in the Fall, I see lots of acorns that have fallen from the tree laying on the ground that have germinated and growing roots. Perhaps I just need to be more patient but my results are not what I expected.
