Another lunch hour on the plot. Found a flattened coal scuttle/witches cauldron. Mulched more saplings. #allotment #coppice #treecare

@ghost_shit Yes, somewhat similar. Daisugi is what it's referred to (platform cedar).

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daisugi

This is the Euro/UK-centric pollard with #coppice being in the same ballpark. End result is similar in all 3, depending on the end use. Willow coppice and pollard are heavily featured in basketry, for one example.

@timsmalley You're local to the forest? Do you mind tagging #coppice #pollard when you identify and photograph one? They're two tags I follow and me being in Australia with mostly American arboriculture teachings, coppice and pollard are basically unknown dark arts here.

@timsmalley Great photo. Since it looked like an ancient #pollard, I had to check:

@braveamateur Yes. A sustainable, inefficient process is better than an efficient, unsustainable process. Nature knows this. Some people know it, too.

It applies in many cultural areas as well, a few examples:

- #functionalprogramming
- perennial #polyculture, #permaculture
- wood burning, if you #coppice or #pollard the trees
- #sourdough

I can clarify some of these in thread if desired.

While it's very sad that the #sycamore on #Hadrian's wall was cut down, the good news is that the tree is not dead, the root system is still intact and will send up regrowth shoots. Selectively prune the '#coppice' to one stem and it will come back rapidly.

Our little botany group were surveying a plot of land that had been spotted as being "of interest" by a Natural England surveyor and which the farmer had fenced off to protect. The Botany wasn't brilliant species-wise, but ye gods, the trees were awesome. Round these parts farming's behind the times and these trees were crops until relatively recently, resulting in ancient gnarly trees. Here's an old Hazel that's seen some action. #Tree #Woodland #Hazel #Pollard #Coppice #Farming

Want to grow #eucalyptus in your yard but they are too darn big?

Try #pollard, an ancient practice of cutting the "poll" at a pre-determined height and using or cycling the material for mulch. Every cut is always made on new wood so it's a sound #arboriculture practice, it can maintain #trees to specific heights that are reset on a cycle plus they don't get out of control. Bonus is, they also live longer based on a pollard history of thousands of years.

Pictured here are Eucalyptus cloeziana, Gympie Messmate, pollards with #vetiver grass underneath as a mulching plant. The Vetiver existed first, the #eucalypts were planted in after the Vetiver Grass suppressed the pasture grass.

These poles will be grown and harvested as 2.1m posts eventually while some Kei Apples and Citrus establish underneath.

As soon as these reached a medium size, insects like sawfly and stick insects moved in which were never present before as the area is too small to grow full size Gum trees.

If you are interested in a history of #coppice and/or pollard, there are some books available, one example: https://www.williambryantlogan.com/sprout-lands

So yesterday, the hazel sapling I transplanted at the 'wrong' time of year hadn't died. I also found my first ever pippin apple, between a cooking apple tree (suspect Bramley) and unknown variety (suspect a pippin itself). So possibly a 'meta-pippin'. I will move this into coppice ASAP. It looks like it was there last year, I didn't see it and took the leader off. How long before pippins bear fruit? #coppice #apples #pippin

My own, personal, bluebells. Hope they are the proper ones. #bluebells #coppice #woodlandmanagement

So, springtime in the coppice garden. I have red or white currants I didn't know about. #currantbush #ribes #coppice #spring

@breadandcircuses You are absolutely right that industrial-scale wood burning is unsustainable, especially if it involves cutting down forests.

A slight nuance though: biomass *can* be sustainable under some conditions. In case of wood:

- Small scale, close to the source.
- #Coppice, #pollard or #prune the trees, rather than taking them down entirely.
- #Compost to generate heat (and perhaps methane) and use as #mulch afterwards if possible.
- Use rocket mass heating otherwise.

#permaculture

Been in our #woodland today, starting to tidy up some neglected #coppice at the lower end. Most of this area hasn't been worked since the end of world war 2. Neglected coppice will rot and die within 100 years or so, but properly managed coppice can last pretty much forever. A valuable resource and all produced with water, CO2, #solar energy and a few nutrients.

Snowdrops in my coppice garden. #snowdrop #coppice #sheffield

After completing 2 wall #baskets I have ideas about how to do better next time. But these will will add their funkiness to my decor and hold some important thing in their #emptiness . I have the wish to learn to #coppice #willow more effectively and get my willow sizes more standardized.

#January 28, 1873
#OTD Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette, #French #Author, #Writer, #Actress, #Cat Lover, & #Poet, is born.

Known simply as Colette, she is best known for Gigi (1944) & Cheri (1920).

In "Sido," Colette wrote,

"O #Geraniums, and yours, O #Foxgloves,
Springing up amidst the #Coppice,
That gave my childish cheeks their #Rosy warmth."

She also wrote,

"There are no #Ordinary #Cats," & "Time spent with a cat is never wasted."
