This is a step by step tutorial on how to grow a White Ash tree from seed, starting with collection all the way to the final product of a sapling. White ash is a beautiful tree with a gorgeous bark pattern, distinct in its deep furrows. White ash is found all over north America and grows to a height of 50-80' and a spread of 40-50' at maturity and has a Lifespan of 260-300 years. Beautiful tree overall but sadly is susceptible to the Emerald ash borer pest that can kill this tree and is responsible for killing millions of ash trees across the US.
FURTHER SAPLING INFO: After you have a sprout with leaf development, give the tree a month or so to establish roots then transplant to a larger pot say an 8 inch wide by 10 inch deep or something similar for optimal sapling health. Then water frequently and transplant as growth increases every couple of months if adequate. If sapling is large enough for your desired planting site, simply remove the sapling from the pot and plant in the ground. Water constantly for the first couple weeks then leave it up to the tree to grow and prosper in the soil!
Research signs of the EAB and treatment methods to stay on guard against this horrid pest that can kill such a nice mature tree.

Awesome! I hope more people start growing Ash trees like this! …as this species, is to beautiful to be endangered.

Appreciate the video. In NJ, EAB is wreaking havoc on central jersey... I collected some white ash keys to hopefully plant some in the spring with the news of that wasp spreading.

I did, from 'helicopters' wintered on the tree, spouts out quickly but ALL after few months became weak and dried to death. I used different soil and fertilizers.... Is it important not to mess cycle winter/summer for ashes? What a mistake I did? Or just seeds bad or infected? The same with oaks ((

Seedlings are very sensitive to fertilizer, just plant em in soil and leave them alone until they're like a year old

When would be the best time to treat them for the EAB? I’m going to be growing my own soon.

ive been growing an ash for about 3 years now and growing fast! But now that our big ash died from EAB im wondering if i should just cut this one down and save our selves the money of a tree service later on. What should i do!?

I wouldn't cut it down, dead trees (snags) can be beneficial for many other native insects and birds. Even having it "treated" isn't going to be very beneficial and will most likely do nothing to contain EAB and kill the beneficial insects that you want. If I were you, I'd collect the seeds and plant them if you have any nearby. Only way we're beating EAB is by planting and growing seeds that have built up generational immunity to the pest itself.

How long did you soak the seeds before putting them in the bag? Also I see most people say to mix with 50% horticultural sand, does it matter?

I didn't soak the seeds. Raw dirt is fine.

Would it hurt of you put your soil inside of a fridge with the seeds?

I've got a white ash in a pot that's been living inside. We'd like to plant it outside, but our town does have EAB, so we don't want to doom it. Can it grow inside for a while? Right now it's about four feet tall and needs a bigger pot. We're trying to do our best by it.

The younger trees are safe for now. The beetles lay eggs on the more substantial trees (2 inch or larger diameter) Their larvae can’t burrow into a small sapling and feed on it, as there isn’t enough cambium layer there for them to feed on. I have a small stand of young white ash here in Connecticut that are doing well so far.
