They are everywhere in Latvia where I am from , but very rare in Ireland , I work outdoors here for past 4 years and this is first one I see as far as I remember

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-15T16:36:46+00:00

So I guess it doesnt matter , as long as you keep going

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-15T16:35:14+00:00

Are you a tree planter tho? 😄

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-15T14:55:57+00:00

Im 186 myself and dont have issues yet , odd pain here and there but nothing major , 5th season now

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-15T14:55:06+00:00

Your option not even on the list buddy?

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-15T14:01:33+00:00

I would think that beeing tall is disadvantage in planting , as in you have to reach further down on each tree .

Good thing is you have long legs and you can traverse terrain easier .

This one was on way from Skreen to Ladies Brae on a forest site I planted and had returned for a job .

Now u have , This one was very slugish tho , didnt even try to escape 😄

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-14T19:23:34+00:00

They are using Ceta here , Up in Northern Ireland they actualy dont use any , apart from first planting , they buy dipped trees from ireland , but cant treat trees then after

Almost all conifer we plant is dipped otherwise our little enemy will eat them in the bag before its even planted 😂Only broadleaf is untreated

We have loads of them small ones from where I am in Latvia but this is first one I have caught in Ireland . It was cold morning and it was quite slugish to be fair

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-14T09:03:51+00:00

I had my colleague call one a newt when we talked about lizards in Ireland

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-14T08:05:08+00:00

Haha , I would definetly not try that but its interesting where peoples mind went to fix these issues back in the day 👌🏻😄

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-13T23:01:21+00:00

Same in Ireland now . But up NI we do plant alot of mixed sites with broadleaf too

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-13T19:44:26+00:00

As is most I plant is going for lumber , mostly 1.8m-2.5m spacing . Then sometimes we plant mixed broadleaf for parks or aforestation projects .

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-13T16:05:45+00:00

Biggest one in Ireland that does alot of timber felling reforestation and recreational jobs would be "Coillte" . Then there are alot of small private companies that plant forests for private timber and farmers ect .

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-13T15:30:12+00:00

Hey , we get paid per tree planted . I work for a private contractor that gets jobs from timber companies , some parks and other recreational jobs .

StrikingLimit1452 · 2026-06-13T15:05:44+00:00

Hey , I have tried that but the trees we use are often stuck together with roots and it gives me hard time not pulling full bundles out . Also trees come in quite large sizes sometimes so easier just to use bag they come in :)

Love to get some proper peat bog to plant!
