One of the simplest ways to measure a tree's height requires a sunny day. Pound a stick or dowel into the ground. Measure the length of the stick above the ground, then measure its shadow. (For example, the stick might be 3 feet tall; its shadow might be 2 feet long.) Now you k...
Vertical growth and the girth of a tree directly correlate to its weight. As a tree grows bigger, it must grow wider to support the height. To find the diameter of your tree, you must first find the circumference. Use a malleable tape measure, and wrap it around the tree at approximatel...
Have you planted trees at home before? yes no Estimate the height of the pine tree you plan to cut down. Use the estimating tools found in the Resources section. Survey the area around the pine tree you wish to cut. Knowing the height of your tree, measure from its base to the point...
For trees that fork between 30 and 137 cm, we recommend taking a single diameter measurement at a lower height鈥攅ither just below the fork or at 30 cm. Diameter measurements at 30 cm better serve researchers seeking to consistently measure radial growth over time, whereas diameter below the ...
This approach also allows us to track tree cover change over time. Now, we can more accurately measure where trees are growing within individual projects and across the surrounding landscapes. You can see an example of tree cover gain in São Paulo State, Brazil between 2017 and 2019 (right...

You can place the handle of your shovel flat across the hole from one side to the other to measure whether the crown is level with the surrounding soil before filling in the hole.Use some compost or composted manure if needed. If the soil that you currently have is not rich,...
Over 200 species of pine trees exist around the globe, with 62 different types growing in North America. Measure the lengths of the pine needles, which typically grow to different sizes depending on the species. Some species of pine have very long needles, such as the 10-inch long needles ...
Consider where your hedge will go - if you are planting it on an exposed slope you will need more resistant trees than in a more sheltered area of garden. You should also measure the intended length and depth of your hedge and calculate how many trees you will need to buy. ...
