⚠️ Big trees do not equal old trees, small trees aren't always young trees ⚠️

[CallmeKraftDinner]

People need to worry about those clearing thousands of acres of land not the person who cuts down 1 tree on their land for whatever reason.

Some trees can grow several rings in a single year. A 70 ring tree might actually only be 50 years old. Fun fact.

[Redstorm_YT]

For those not wanting to wait: it’s 73 years old

[Polarbear]

He actually said “we didn’t cut it down “ meaning they just made the stump of the tree into something new and beautiful almost giving it a second life

[Parfumlestinkxby]

Remember: not every giant tree takes 5000 years to get that tall.

[beastmansp]

This is actually insane that a tree could grow that big in just 70 years

[dewianjani]

73 yr old tree. It's old. Thank you for your service to house tiny animals, to protect the soil, and giving us good air to breathe for 73 years.

They have a tik tok. They actually asked for this tree from someone else's property. The tree had already fallen and it had been there for some time. So they asked and the person said yes. They had the entire tree transported over and this is the vision they created! They are actually very resourceful ppl! For example their roof shingles came from a fire of another building! 🥰

When he started counting I was on thinking “he won’t really count all the rings right” and then he did

[Rachel-xghs]

The way I just watched an entire video of a man counting to 73

This tree was 73 years old . The age of a tree can be known by counting its inner rings. Each year the tree grows and absorbs whatever is in the dirt, in the water and in the air. This creates a layer over the one before. We call it a ring. That's why rings can be easily seen and distinguished. Because each year conditions vary! And if sent to a lab, we can know what the environment was like in a specific year by analysing the contents of each ring!
Pretty incredible, huh?! 👍🏻

[minimappering]

I love how you can actually see how much it grew each year

Spoiler alert: The tree is 73-years old and he pets his dog, Peter

[creative_carrie]

Some people don't understand that different tree species grow at different rates. They see a big tree and think it's ancient

[Paul-ycdc]

Trees are truely magnificent organisms

[stanleyitem]

Just watched a guy count down 73 layers of a tree. I don't regret it.

[brendagroff]

I have 7 redwoods that are now 35 years old. They're gorgeous. 🌲

[Stoetz]

Most polite way of telling that person “get fucked.”

[Notfornothinbut]

I love that instead of ripping and grinding the stump out of the ground, it's being repurposed into a beautiful natural soaking tub ❤
