Great video, we have property in Hickman county and have a ton of oak, hickory, shortleaf pine, and tulip poplar. Only 1 black walnut though. For oak, Red Oak always has "pointy" lobes on the leaves, while White Oak always has rounded lobes.
Great info on these trees! I think this is the best tree ID video I've seen. It will help me a lot. Thank you! Now, I just need to identify some pines. I will check your channel for that.
19:53 Difficulty in identifying an elm. I think there's one on your right around the 1;30 mark. Now THAT is one limb that will smack you off a tractor like a rubber whip. Great work and well explained.
That ol ERC is one helluva seasoning for them beautiful Tennessee trout over the breakfast campfire. I am from and live in KS but when I rode my bicycle through TN I fell in love with it and I hope to live there one day. I was actually searching for a way to identify the species as firewood so I can find the good stuff to turn some chisel handles and do some projects with.
My wife and I vacation in wears valley tenn every year. We're from Louisiana and it blows my mind when I black walnut everywhere. Our last cabin there had some walnut for firewood. Beautiful state.
Outstanding job for someone not native to the area. Not so sure of your attraction/love of Walnut trees. Yes they do have beautiful wood and a very flavorful nut, if you can defeat the shell. Many people are misguided into believing that their Walnut tree(s) are worth a lot of $$$. And in general their board per foot price will be higher than the surrounding species. But there are common trees that bring a much higher board per foot price than Walnut.
You can also tap a black walnut tree just like a maple tree. They make some of the best syrup I've ever had. I love working with the black walnut it just makes my projects look better 😆.
Thanks so much for this! I'm a year and a half in to exploring all the new nature of middle Tennessee. I'm hoping to root some branches I cut off of fresh broken limbs and learn as they grow. 😊Will definitely have to watch this a few times though since they are just the smoother smaller budding pieces I cut off the big branch. Should've grabbed bark pics. (One was kinda scaley, inside looked redder - possibly red maple? possibly not 😂) I'd do better if there were leaves but March 22 - only some have gotten their leaves. Do you have a series on winter bud identification?
That tree at 6:15 has a vine growing up the trunk. I would CUT that vine so it can't overwhelm the tree. Also, it's probably poison ivy. I hate vines poison ivy, or not. If anyone reading this spots any privet or wysteria get rid of it.
Very helpful video. Due to the price of lumber and the number of dead or dying trees I have I ordered a Woodland Mill two weeks ago. I have put off many projects due to costs. I am in Indiana and most of my Ash trees are dead. Do you have any identification/wood uses books for trees that you would recommend? Keep up the good work.
@@TCSawmills maybe include some of the popular lumber uses of each species. I recently bought a mill and have some much to learn. It’s a little overwhelming. Thanks for sharing!
Looks like there might be some Morels around those parts at the right time of year huh? Holy moly that is one big beautiful Beech! Sheesh I think I might hug that one even! lol
@WFly101 Hackberry has a bark similar to the Beech, smooth and grey. But Hackberry bark will have little nodules (for lack of a better word) that will make it not so smooth in areas.
Pennsylvania lumbering practices are horrible. The carnage is out of control as they try to feed the huge pensions that the state has handed out to employees. Their select cut is pretty much poorly managed.
“and errything “ lol dig it ! good content and errything

Nice video and descriptions. Beautiful property.
Beautiful property! Great video! I'm going to watch this video several times as this is a great educational video.

I wasn’t aware of this. I may have to look further into this. Walnut syrup sound good. Thanks

That boxelder is really an ash. Boxelder s are parking lot trees, they lean tsideways, jagged leaflets.
Thank you
Upper East Tennessee here
Tulip poplar is also the state tree of ky
It's a great tree, one of my favorites
Awesome video sir
Thanks

I’ve got one little black walnut putting out a few walnuts for the first time this year. No idea where it came from
Would love to see a Linden / Boxwood tree example.
I now live in an area where box wood grows. I will get a video out here late spring in Wisconsin with examples.

I'm on the fence about buying a Woodland Mills HM130, which one did you get? And what was the delivery time frame?
@@hpw59 I ordered the HM126 with one track and all the extras No trailer. 4-12 weeks to deliver it has been 2.
Awesome! When does Episode 2 drop?!?!?!
Hopefully I'll have a video on Southern Mississippi trees next month.

Can do

By chance are you from up in western Missouri
