Treatment of Cuttings
Silviculture
Do not worry about the form and growth of the tree above 6m! It
is too costly to maintain, and every breath of wind will result in
branch breakages! Be prepared to do big cleanups after a good
strong wind, although young branches are quite flexible in the
wind. If the main pole is damaged, you can cut it off at ground
level (in winter) to try to get another one year 6m growth in the
next season!! (You will need to select vigorously your best coppice!)
Wind may blow poles over, so you may have to repack the pole
root systems in again! You can reach 50cm dbh in 12 years.
