Very helpful and informative! Here over North Alabama, Loblolly is very well spread over the Cumberland Outliers. The sister Short Leaf Pine is trickier to find, but in some places, it grows in abundance, mostly atop the outliers along the bluffs.
Loblolly pines are my favorite. I started planting them in eastern Oklahoma on a 20 acre remote location. I learned the first year that in the fall rut season deer will decimate them without question. So the second year I learned to cage them with 5' rectangular fencing. None of them have been bothered since. With no watering other than natural rain over 5 years they have gone from 3 feet in height to over 20 feet. They do need to be mulched at planting. They grow incredibly fast and are very forgiving of soil type and drought. Get them through their first year with a little care and they are off to the races. My oldest one has already produced small sterile cones. I estimate that tree to be 8 years of age and I planted it when it was 3 years old. Planting the small saplings did not work for me as the trees are unattended...they all died. Planting a 2 foot or taller tree works each time due to their roots.
My entire village is covered with loblolly pine. We didn't plant them but they just grow it naturally in abundant. We never use bricks/muds or any other woods and materials we only use Loblolly pine to build our house and furnitures. This tree plays a very important role in our vilage live.
Thank you for posting and sharing, very informative and helpful, there are plantings of these in NJ, in low lying areas, like you said, i enjoyed this video!
Thanks for the video, I was able to comprehend more verses reading several items, especially you defining loblolly back in the day (mud). Again, thanks for the video. Are those genetic improved loblollies? If so, are they 1st, 2nd, or 3rd generation seedlings. I’m interested in a South Carolina property that has 94 acres of genetic improved generation 1 trees. Are second generation seeds better as it relates to quality of trees/lumber? One article stated the height of loblolly pines attracts lighting, yet a second article discourages cutting tops of loblolly’s due to death of tree.
Thanks for this video as I don't know much about the Southern Pines. In terms of habitat and soil preferences, Loblolly sounds like the bipolar opposite of Lodgepole Pines.
Can the pinecones be smaller? If you live in areas like Oklahoma? I’m pretty sure I found this tree Everything Pointe Santa direction except for the pinecones right now and summer are smaller
in my neighborhood we have those same pine trees but I hate the cones and the only kind that I like are Norway spruce pine cones since they don't hurt when you pick them up
Hello Cesar, I'd like to direct you to our website where you can ask an extension expert a specific question at this link: ask.extension.org/groups/1727/ask Thanks for checking out our TH-cam channel!
Cesar Sánchez did you plant them yet my dad plants loblolly pine trees he could bring his squad over there and plant in straight rows into a plantation for u 😉

Excellent and thorough explanation! This kind of stuff just can’t be found on Google. Growing two loblollys for bonsai right now.
I have five very old Loblolly Pines in my back yard down by my lake. They are awesome trees, but then again I have always loved pine trees.
@Rosemarie Plant oh stop
Thank you!!! Beautiful video. Well made and informative. Thank you again

I want to try in planting Loblolly pines too, are they going in Africa?
@@mawangaenvironement2024 fucking funny bro 🤣🤣🤣
@@mawangaenvironement2024 Africa is a great place for loblolly pine. Hope you found your answer.
What’s your soil like?
@@Phimbe We have sandy loam here that is very full of red clay. It isn't the best soil in the world but the pines love it. The pH is pretty neutral.
I grew up surrounded by these.
Growing with only these trees is disheartening when you wish to climb trees and these are the only ones around
The national tree of the south.

Excellent presentation

How would you go about dating a tree like that, i got 1 on my property next to an old bay swamp bigger than that in ludowici, Ga.
Great question! Please look into your local extension as they have technical service providers who can help or provide resources for this purpose.
Had these in our backyard in Franklin Va.
Very informative. Thank you.

well done. Informative.
on the adults the bark forms like small plate barks that can be removed easily by hand

In Arkansas we have.. short leaf, loblolly,long leaf and slash pines. Are all these varieties safe to use for antiseptics and tea?
Did you ever find out if it is safe? I’m looking for the same answer to this question
in my neighborhood we have those same pine trees but I hate the cones and the only kind that I like are Norway spruce pine cones since they don't hurt when you pick them up
Wondering if I can make tea with loblolly pine needles
That’s the same I’m trying to find out but from my research so far I think you can.
Thank you!!
Are the seeds that fly poisonous I have them blown into my garden and have dogs and a kid that go to eat them
I have a ranch with 560 Acres what kind of Pines you recommend me 4 reforestation.

Cesar Sánchez loblolly
Don’t plant loblolly! Plant a useful tree not these things they’re fragile and dangerous!
how fast does it grow?
Luke Jones 2ft per year
I like good old hardwood growth...much better for the wild
