I just have a wood lot. I spray poplar stumps with Tordon RTU when I cut them near food plots because they stump sprout and I don’t want them popping up into the plots. I’m slowly working on releasing red oaks by cutting but, am wondering if I could get more opened up faster by the hack and squirt method vs girdling or cut and drop.
@@nhmountains5683 Maybe so... What you're describing is similar to girdling, which is always faster and safer than putting trees on the ground. I don't use herbicide on native species myself, but I could see how that might work.
Keep these great videos coming, Ethan.
Really useful information- thank you - much appreciated! I have subscribed…
Love these vids!
Great video Ethan. Do you ever use hack snd squirt methods to release?
Hi there! No, I haven't. Do you use that method in NH?
