I hope nobody takes 4 wheelers or snowmobiles out there when they are saplings. Thank you for your video. I feel so much more encouraged with all the white pine trees I have to plant and transplant.
I’m doing the same thing at my property in Montana. I can’t believe how quickly those trees grow however that is the advantage of southern yellow pines. Looks great.
I have a similar need on our small property with a neighbor right next door. I want to get something planted to allow us for some privacy. Not a big fan of pine trees but, I can't deny how well they function. Never seen that dibbler tool. I will have to look into one of those when I decide what to plant. Great video.
To bad you couldn't get that adjacent field,but the existing pines look awesome and the new ones will make a perfect privacy fence...Appreciate the vid brother! Doing something similar,hope it turns out that nice!
Ur ground dirt is way better then my dirt that’s for sure. My dirt here in California is more compacted then urs and has a bunch of rocks in the ground with it and it’s kinda hard to dig through with a shovel. I wished I had ur kinda dirt.
Can u plant them right now as we speak. I bought 3 dwarf pine trees i think that's what they're called. They have some little balls/knots growing on them. They're about 2 feet in height. Should I keep them in the container or plant them now?
I may have missed this, but were your pines staggered, or did you plant the pines directly across from each other in each row? Love the privacy! I've got some coming from Andrews Nursery in January. Choctawhatchee sand pines.
How are the seedlings coming along you planted in this video? Roughly what do you think the growth rate per year is? I’m in Tennessee and need a wind break bad and pine is what I keep coming back to.
I'm in the same boat as you in terms of land next door selling and wanting privacy now along the long stretch exactly like how you have done. I was going to do 3 rows wide (each row staggered for more privacy) with spacing like yours. How far apart would you say row to row is? my guess was maybe 12-15ft so the trees can bush out in between.
Probably 12 feet (recommend even wider), these pines get so large and bushy that they will be touching in just a few years. Cedars offer the most privacy, but about 5-6 small cedars cost what I paid for a 1000 pines (not kidding).
Great job, thank you for sharing. Could you tell me how far apart from each trees are you doing it? Not sure if I heard that or if you said it in the Vid, thank you🙏🏽🙏🏽
Nice video . Too bad about the easement . Was there one before the property got sold ? How much did the trees cost you ? Where about are you . I get a kick out of people walking around in a T-shirt near the end of December . Thanks
No there was not a easement, when the property beside me sold from the same family that owns the back property, it cut their road off. Thus the reason for a new road to the back property that is still owned by the original family. The trees are very affordable, 60 bucks per 500 trees. I'm in North Florida, might be flip flops one day and 20 degrees the next. Our winters are crazy.
@@TKCL Ok thanks . In other words they sold part of their property and kept the back part . So now they tresspass on your property to get to their property . Doesn't seem right . Very good price on the trees . Thanks for the tip in planting them
@@henryrodgers3409 no the easement is actually on the property that sold, it just borders mine. So the new owner is the one that lost property to the easement, I just lost some privacy. Just one of those things I did not think of, or I would have planted trees years ago for privacy.
This is one of my favorites of your videos. I probably first saw this a couple years ago and thought it was a great idea.
They've grown so fast
NOT BORING AT ALL!!! GREAT! MUCH RESPECT!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Amazing job! Thank you for posting. My back hurts just watching.
It was a long day! Thanks for watching!
Brilliant!

Nice video and some honest hard work performed by one man. Good job
Thanks for watching!

Yes they grow amazingly fast after the first two years.
I have a similar need on our small property with a neighbor right next door. I want to get something planted to allow us for some privacy. Not a big fan of pine trees but, I can't deny how well they function. Never seen that dibbler tool. I will have to look into one of those when I decide what to plant. Great video.
That tool was home made, but I am sure someone out there makes something that would work just as well
Thanks for the info 😊
Any time
Andrew, thanks for sending me this link. I really enjoyed the video. What a huge undertaking to plant 1K pine trees by hand. Outstanding job!!
Thank you
Fantastic!
Amazing video thanks brotha and god bless
Thank you for watching! God bless

Thanks, best of luck with the planting!
Great pine tree video!
Thanks!
@@TKCL Did you have to mow in between them after you planted them?
Yes I did for the first three years, then it was to tight of a squeeze
Do you know of a way to protect pine saplings from cows? I want to plant more trees, but the cows are a problem especially with broad leaf trees
Other than fence around the trees, it's going to be difficult.
Ur ground dirt is way better then my dirt that’s for sure. My dirt here in California is more compacted then urs and has a bunch of rocks in the ground with it and it’s kinda hard to dig through with a shovel. I wished I had ur kinda dirt.
I have never heard of sand pines. I am planting eastern white pines. I thought those were fastest growing pines! The growth on your pines is amazing!
Lots of sunshine and rain in Florida.
@@TKCL lot of snow, ice and misery in Michigan 😆

I've always planted when dormant, that's usually late winter and early spring. I'm not sure for your situation.
@@TKCL i live in southern California where it's usually over 100 degrees in the summer.
Nice video. Good job 🎊
Thanks
Where did you buy your trees from? Did you go to a nursery or on line??
Huge nursery in Lee Florida.
Thank you for the tips. What size tractor do you have?
4066r John deere. It's 66 hp.
You might have said but what type pine trees are these?
Sand pines
Where do you get those baby trees with the roots already grown?
From very large tree nurseries in Florida. They grow these by the millions.
Would these do well in Illinois and Kentucky?
Im not aure with your weather.
Do you protect the pine saplings with anything like tree tubes?
Nothing, I did lose a few to digging animals and deer. I replaced those the following year.
Where do you buy your pine trees at? I live in northern Indiana.
A huge nursery in Florida.
What is the temperature outside when you plant it? Do you ever water them or do any other maintenance ?
We always plant when dormant, that's usually in January in Florida. It might be 20 degrees or 70, you never know. I do not water them, way too many.
Also what is the name of those pines (really) want to get same for our property.
Sand pines
I may have missed this, but were your pines staggered, or did you plant the pines directly across from each other in each row? Love the privacy! I've got some coming from Andrews Nursery in January. Choctawhatchee sand pines.
I did not worry about staggering since these bush out so much.
How are the seedlings coming along you planted in this video? Roughly what do you think the growth rate per year is? I’m in Tennessee and need a wind break bad and pine is what I keep coming back to.
Doing well, most are 6-8 ft tall now. Planted three years ago.
Find you some Leyland cypress they grow really fast
how are they doing now? any updates?

Where do you buy your little pine trees at?
A large nursery in Lee Florida
What percentage would you say you lose while they're getting established?
Depends on the weather. I've been fortunate and stayed in the 90 percent + success range.
Thank You !!!
Your welcome!
Where do you buy your pines from?
A huge nursery in Lee Florida. You have to put your order in by mid summer and they harvest during the winter.
@@TKCL thanks

How/did you irrigate them? Thanks!
I didn't, we depend on rain for them, that's why you plant them during their dormant season (late winter).
Great job, thank you for sharing. Could you tell me how far apart from each trees are you doing it? Not sure if I heard that or if you said it in the Vid, thank you🙏🏽🙏🏽
These are a bit close at around 6 ft
@@TKCL do you thin them after? Or are those big ones still 6ft apart?
The big ones are the same. I let them grow together.
Do you have a update on your trees??
Doing very well and several are 8ft tall now.
How many pines did you get this time, and did you order them?
I got 1000 but only put 600 or so in the ground. You have to place your order in the fall at the nursery and pick up late December through February.
@@TKCL Thanks, and the price per seedling?
It's per 250, last year it was around 50 bucks. No idea what it is now. Very cheap way to plant a bunch of trees
where did u buy the pines?
Superior trees in Lee FL. It's a huge nursery that sells pines by the thousands to local tree planters.
before after please 🙏

@@TKCL OK good . Thanks . Now you'll have a great wind break in a few years . Besides the Pine tree line looks beautiful .
@@TKCL can you please tell me the name of the pines you planted? Thank you
How did u pay for your pines and r they north eastern white pines?
No these are southern sand pines. I bought them directly from the nursery that grows them.
@@TKCL how much did they cost u ?
They were cheap, less than a 100 bucks
Where did you get your pine trees & the planting tool?
Tool is homemade. The trees were bought from a huge nursery in Lee Florida. A lot of pine tree nurseries in Florida.
What is the exact name of this pine please and thank you
Is it called superior ?
Yes it is
Do they sell all types of pine trees?
Looks dry 💥 Did you water after planting?
It was dry, I timed my planting right before a rain. The next day we got around 2 inches so it packed them in nicely.
@@TKCL Perfect 👍
Would love to see an update!
Go to 6:55 mark in this video and watch ua-cam.com/video/zKlmjnJHL5s/v-deo.html I provide that update.
@@TKCL Amazing, thank you! Keep up the awesome work!
I wanna apply this job
but air pockets do naturally exist in soils.
Did you say 5000!
I'm up to 7,000 now.
You grew a beard while you doing it bup
at least plant some oaks, pines are worthless pulp. oaks will net you quarter million in 15+ years.
Exact opposite here, hardly no hardwood market. Pulp and sawmills everywhere, that's why there is millions of acres of pines here.
