i’m trippin balls watching this and this by far the most interesting thing i’ve seen in over 8 months

Absolutely fascinating, thanks for the post! I'll never look at a board or tree the same way

This was absolutely everything I was looking to learn about trees, And nothing more! Thank youuuu

I’m not a woodworker, but this was extremely fascinating! 🌳 🌲

That was an awesome learning experience. Thank you so much

How has this not got more views? This has changed how I look at trees now. It's crazy how we are surrounded by them but easily get overlooked. Really informative and well presented. Thanks!

This was really helpful because I had a hard time understanding the basics just from reading books because I'm a visual learner. Thank you!

A very informative video delivered with clarity.Thank you.

Qualified Arborist. Just learnt a heap of info. Never heard of ray lines. Thank you.

Great job. Very clear and concise and easy to understand.

Awesome video, Thank you PW & Ron!

I know more about trees in 9:25 than I have known in 72 years of living .... thank you, sir

Great video sir. I'm from the Philippines and I loved your video. Thanks

Always solid information. Thank you.

Enjoyed and learned from this great presentation. Thanks

Excellent teacher. Thank you!

Thank yoy for the teaching 🤝 this is very interesting to hear

Really great stuff! Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Chris.

Nice explanation. First time it was fully laid out

This is a very good video, thank you for your efforts

Learned some more. Glad I found this.

Great teaching.

Thank you for this very informative video.

That was super informative. Saving this video!

Great educational video! Thanks!

That was a excellent video. I learned allot.Thank you :3

Nice informative video. Thank you

Sensational. I love this type of video.

Thank you, I found that really helpful.

Great Video this was incredibly informative

Great work Thanks for the lesson

I learned about medullary rays. That's cool because I might use it someday to consider the wood I choose. I've been learning all about foraging and survival such. It's powerful to know what can be used for what, or at least be able to figure it out. Medullary rays tells me a wood strong and durable. I can use pine for starting fires with its resin sap, dead Pinus strobus for fat wood, make tea with Hemlock needles, and get dry dead branches for firewood held off the ground at it's base. I can identify White and Red Oaks by their leaves and acorns Supposedly the acorns from the White Oak are not so bitter, can be cooked with less changes of water to make palatable. Haven tryed that myself yet.

Amazing, thanks!

Excellent info. Thanks

thanks, thank you for doing this, i really learned a lot

thank you for helping me with biology!!!

Thank you for creating the video. I found it very informative. Please make more.

thanks about this information that was helpful to me

Great info!

absolutely fascinating. thank you.

This was so good for teaching my kid with, thank you, I cant seem to open the link to the full video though.

Thanks helped with my school

Such an interesting video

thank you!

Very informative.

Amazing video thank you so much for sharing ;-)

Holy shit I'm learning about how trees work from the Green River Killer!! Thanks "Ron Herman"!

Thanks for this! 🙌 👏

Fascinating!

seriously. Dude how can you be so intelligent about trees, so smart, and not think the viewer (& their kids), would've really wanted to know how "OLD" the tree from the sample stump was? Wow.

So meaningful

Thanks

Nice video

very interesting

Hi, we really loved the video it’s very clearly explained and 1 graders enjoyed watching it over and over again. Where we can find the chart with the section showing the layers of the tree? Thank you 🙏🏻

He sure knows his wood

This is very interesting, I wood like to see some more videos about dendrochronology. Can you guys put some in the replies.

Woah, amazing. Are you considering to make a video about morning wood?

Interesting 😄

Thank you! This makes me want to be a tree scientist. Unfortunately it is a little late for that.

Cool

First I really appreciate your expert analysis. Unfortunately when I tried to go to the actual website I get a bad response and will not get connected... Please fix this so we can watch the whole video.

How do trees grow? We already know about the rings. How do trees get taller if you make a mark in one spot and it remains in the same spot 20 years later yet the trunk is 40 feet taller?

Tree's really good

I've heard those terms all my life but this is the first time I understood what they meant. Thanks. Question: If you grew a tree under artificial conditions so that it was in exactly the same environment throughout its life would tree rings completely disappear? I know some tropical trees almost don't have rings but what happens if you take a temperate zone tree and grow it so there are no seasonal changes in its environment?

Hi! Is there any posibility that trees grow more than 1 ring per year? I mean, are there any conditions that affect trees for growing several rings per year or at least 2 rings per year? Thanks!

Fuckin ace video mate. Loved it.

The very very interesting thing..barely touched upon, is the adaptivity of a tree..that it KNOWS that damage has occurred; or that it is out-of-balance; or that it is aware that attacks are happening and requires defensive actions....What form does this 'tree-consciousness' take and where does it lie within the tree's substance?

Great stuff, I’d like to learn more about this. Any chance of a series of learning videos?

Awesome video! But why did Ron Swanson change his last name??

So is the pith the non woody young tree when it was just a sprout?

Do the rings grow outside inwards or inside outwards?

its still hard for me to understand the growth of the tree deeper, but this a good heads up

great learning experince grade 9 at WSS approve

Where the tree trunk come from??

Save the trees

KZfaq algorithm please recommend real educational videos like this, instead of showing people wasting food for views.

How does a tree get water to the top? Gravity seems a problem,so does a tree have some sort of pump?

I really just randomly thought about how a tree grows n searched dis shit #Quarantining😩

Ha ha now I know how to count the age of a tree. Quick question though, can you count the age of a tree by using a branch or do you need the wood from the trunk to accurately count the age?

So what I understand is each line= like a year of age?

i could not understand the last part(its my fault i am aan english learner), so why does it radiate ?

Guys if a tree falls down from storm count It’s rings, it will tell you the age of the tree and how well it grew.

i now know wood

hi

Identifying wood.

Now I can die in peace

damn vector really downgraded from stealing the moon to trees

The harder the wood of the tree the slower it grows the softer the wood of the tree the faster it will grow.

This was a great video. Thanks. I also found a playlist showing how to identify wood by looking at the end grain. kzfaq.info/sun/PLMVjQeszKDAwAuEqT8GzG24F2k5D0AB3v

Trees are the weirdest living things that exist.

The tree dies because the bark cambium dies? Are you sure?

imagine mixing up white and red oak. what an amateur

Dendrochronology is pseudo-science. Tree-rings are also determined by microclimates, pests, rainfall, disease, and canopy cover - they are useless at determining temperature and climate. In addition, a single tree can have dramatically different ring-thicknesses in one section of trunk. The left side may have thick rings in a certain decade, while the right side has thin rings. So if you core the tree from the left the climate was warm, and if you core it from the right the climate was cold. Same goes for dendrochronology. If tree-rings are highly variable in one tree, and stands of trees are effected by local conditions, then how can you compare a ship’s timber with a reference bog-oak in Ireland, or a bristlecone in America? As I say - it is all bogus pseudo-science. It’s a joke. See my recent paleoclimate paper: Modulation of Ice Ages by Dust and Albedo. Ralph.
