Re-spacing

[slack ma girdle]

I need a couple of fools for utterly mindless re-spacing this Thursday and Friday near Martletwy west Wales. I won't mention the Brambles and gorse, that can be a nice supprise.

 

P.M if you are intrested

Don't start that one again, there is a time and a place for that.

It is spear cutting of small runty tree to allow the better ones more space and less competition.

How does that differ from say first thinnings ?

Naf all, although first thinnings tend to be clearing out racks, the re-spacing is random, down to the cutters judgment. The wood is a mix of natural re-gen, and planted spruce, hence the random bit.

I will post some pictures when i am next there.

That will be something to look forward to.
