I am looking for some advice on Sitka spruce value and specifications. At some point over the next 6 months we will be thinning Sitka in our own woodland. I have no idea what its roadside value would be and also what lengths we should cut it too? The timber is medium sized and is based in East Devon. Any advice would be gratefully received.

Biomass and 3.7m log would be the way I'd go. Depending on the size of the timber and overall volume, I'd be tempted to just biomass the lot. 

 

I should add that I am very well set up for thinning sitka economically and with a minimal environmental footprint. I have a mini forwarder and a mini stroke processor, so I'd be keen to have a look at the job for you and offer some idea of costs and potential profit. I'm at Cullompton now (previously Edinburgh).
