Well, almost...
You Pollard when you cut it back to one main stem.
Yes, that is what’s know as coppice. Your production of wood per acre increases greatly when you don’t cut those extra shoots.
Standard practice is to cut the first year growth (I use them for additional plantings - either poles or cuttings. I have done both, and since about 95% of the 8” cuttings root and grow great.) that way you get multiple shoots put up for the second and subsequent years growth.
Right now I am growing two different hybrids DN34 and OP367 Both do great around here - actually those two do well in most of the U.S.. I also have a New Zealand Willow Hybrid that does pretty well... I even sell some of the cuttings for windbreaks around chicken houses (they grow about 2.6 million chickens around here per week)- I do it more for hobby than profit... at 20¢ an 8” cutting, it adds up.
Black Cherry makes a good fire... The poplars burn a bit faster and are only about 75-80% as high a heat producers.
I envy you all up there with all the seaweed. We don’t have that much around here. I used to collect dead horseshoe crabs and run them through a hammermill, but they limit that now and you have to have special permits... they say the birds might not get enough to eat.
On the seeds, I just got the three that were backordered. They must really be busy about now...
Get a good nights sleep... Those muscles will be all rested and ready to go in a day or two...
Copied AND bookmarked.<<<
Now we know the name of the plan he is following.
When I first saw it, I had to really laugh at some of them.
Yep, the proctologist named em right...
I suspect he is following a plan a bit larger than the Cloward-Piven strategy. He is on course to destroy the capitaslism process in America and likely around the world, like dominoes. Such a lareg scaled plan smacks of Soviet planning, not just some affirmative action fraud like Barry Obama.
>>>Yes.. No-code required .<<<
Hmmm, not even for a General? I thought that only applied to the Technician... But it has been many many years since I checked that...
Actually code was my no-brainer... Morse Intercept Operator in the Army.
During a hyperinflation, the majority of the population who counted on the scrip they were forced to deal with and save can only feel angry desperation as all their savings turn to ashes practically overnight.<<<
It is working, the middle class vanished and now we have poor and rich.
Junk found set out for the trash man, has more value than a dollar.
Free Cycle is a winner.
As The One - Øbama - has been trying to get the support of medical practitioners for his new socialized Universal Health Care...<<<
LOL, written to bring out emotion, as I have cussed, cried and wondered what the doctor really things.
An excellent planting chart...Thanks for posting it.
Now that is one great chart! Copying that one to file, also.
I love code btw... sometimes when voice or packet cant cut through the noise ,,, code will..
congrats on your mso, if they still call it that..
ping
I’m afraid you are right. The libs stop at nothing to get their way - not even when the people disagree by a huge majority. So much for being ‘representatives.’<<<
I do not know how to get their attention, some of the time, I am sure they are all drug fried brains.
5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE<<<
It is a sin to invent something that is instantly available and not on one’s diet.
LOL, that is a joke, my diet is “it it stays still long enough to catch it, it is dinner.”
He is on course to destroy the capitaslism process in America and likely around the world, like dominoes. Such a lareg scaled plan smacks of Soviet planning, not just some affirmative action fraud like Barry Obama.<<<
You know that I agree with you.
welcome to the thread, thank you for coming to read and join in if you like.
Thank you for having me. I have been reading up on salting meat. When I get some good links I will post them on the new thread.

Jac Smit, the Father of Urban Agriculture - His new web site
Interviews with Jac - audio files.
Jac Smit, the ‘Father of Urban Agriculture’ is the pioneer who virtually created
the concept of urban agriculture. In a 2009 interview with Franz Jaggar, Jac recounts
his first-hand experiences.
Segment #1: Jac and Urban Agriculture - The Beginnings
“Urban Agriculture” grew out of Jac’s term paper at Harvard University. Then, while
working in India for the Ford Foundation, Jac had a chance to put his ideas into
practice even while the concept of growing food in city gardens and plots was virtually
unheard of. Length 4:56.
Segment #2: From Backyard ‘Farmer’ to Harvard
Jac explains how he was ‘farming’ in third grade, and that interest drove him through
high school, service in the Korean War, and into graduate school at Harvard University.
Length 3:25.
