Replant.ca - Tree Planting Canada

If they are just getting pulled, bundled and put into cold storage until the Spring. They will be fine. Someone can correct me on the following point if I am wrong...the only time where there would be concern is if the trees have flushed and not hardened off yet. If this were the case they might die...

Flagging has it's place.... but that doesn't mean you always need it. I think two things are important here... (1) Practice makes perfect I think, generally, practice makes perfect in this situation. Learn to look for your TREES and not for flag. You will need to train your eyes to see trees. So whe...

I don't think bait bags were very successful for the MPB stuff...wonder if the 'trap trees' will be more effective...or spruce beetle management will eventually mimic the MPB program.

Haven't had issues with the price on iPhone, but requiring info like seedlot, treatment type, etc. before being able to use it makes it annoying. I've also noticed you have to swipe through the combos to add to your tally... My Rite in the Rain and pen work better so far and ultimately seems faster....

-> I think you should be able to add a bagup....not just keep a running tally. So it would list each bagup individually and then have a running tally. I like seeing the variability in my day (esp if I'm timing myself - but also just in general) -> Would be cool if we could export our data to a sprea...

I read somewhere that they were projecting food cost to go 4.6% this year....already a noticeable increase here on the coast. And that is in a major town. I can't imagine what the cost of food will be like for people working in places like Gold River or North of CR. Scooter you might want to start t...

I agree with Scooter on the knives - and if you can get yourself at least one decent chopping knife... Also agree on the slow cooker..If you don't have the room for a slow cooker - hit up a local thrift shop and get one, then donate it at the end of the season. I strongly believe in the value of rai...

Available for iOS too - I'll definitely be giving it a try.

I'd say unless you are in a motel, I haven't worked in a BC camp where the camp cost wasn't 25$ +tax. I've paid as little as 13$/day in motel shows... but you then have to pay for your own food.

I guess the real question is...can you lose what is already lost?

I don't know if we can really say BC gov't is 'losing' control. From my understanding of the legislation and conversations with some older foresters who have worked with the MOF, there have been a few waves in terms of the level of enforcement that the MOF has. I think also, that we are kind of appr...

This is an interesting publication on selecting stock types. Some of this is the information people look at when suggesting stock for the blocks we plant... This can give you an idea of how stock selection can help address regional issues and things that may impede blocks from eventually become free...

Scooter, I know the one you are taking about...I actually came across them in a really weird place. The Wheatsheaf pub in Cedar (by Nanaimo) has a cold beer and wine store and they sell them there. I might also have seen them at ONOs in Courtenay but definitely saw them in the liquor store of all pl...

Today - I thought I was having a bad day...as I planted along I opened a hole and realized I nicked a small salamander. I picked it up and moved it. Then I thought to myself....I must have really made that salamander's day bad; think about a giant metal object just intruding on your house and injuri...

If Hell exists, it isn't full of fire and brimstone. It's full of cedar slash.

This might be the best description of a super slashy cedar splat block I've ever heard...I've definitely felt like this before.

In a more honest manner: I think that at least four of those five are no longer operating. Not sure about the fifth. I also thought that it was Triple 8. I haven't heard that name in a few years. Triple 8 is long gone - somewhere along the line I think it became M&L and then eventually Nootka R...

My partner and I bought Cucamanga's bug dope and to be honest it was the only thing that worked in some areas - yes you do have to reapply, generally after a baggup, it worked the best when it was directly on your skin (which I don't mind cause it's all natural, safe and smells pretty good). We like...

Just got this awesome foamie as a bed for the coast...it's incredible - I recommend it to anyone. We got a queen size (which was vacuum sealed when we bought it in a tiny box and I thought I might have to return it because it was the wrong size but when we took it out of the packaging and let it exp...

You can get the hip doubler at Deakin in vancouver and if I remember correctly it was fairly priced...maybe 30$

I'm going to have to agree with Jules on this one.... There is a big difference between the lifespan of gear and defective gear.... I've had mec happily give me store credit on defective product within the realm of their warranties... But I don't expect them to replace gear that has been well used a...

I personally don't have a dog, but do enjoy having them around camp if they are well trained. I've been bit by an aggressive dog that shouldn't have been at a camp, and while I was upset about it...I still enjoy having some dogs around. The company I worked for has a one dog per crew policy that wor...

I thoroughly enjoyed wearing thing wool sweaters i went to VV picked up like 3 good merino wool sweaters for 2$ a piece and wore them every day, through rain and sun - they dont reak after wearing them in the blistering sun, they actually kept me cool and in the rain - they kept me warm even if i wa...

i couldnt believe it.

i love mate...i wish i had taken it planting last year it can have equal to more amounts of caffeine as coffee but is paired with another compound that promotes alertness and focus. energy wise i think its probably the same.... but the biggest thing i notice with it is it allows me to focus more tha...

Should probably be in useful websites and youtube videos - but great film nonetheless... may have been posted on here before.

As far as I've heard it's all just speculation that Khaira is somehow related to Dewan or Tiger. Both of those companies have been around longer than Khaira was. How about AKD Reforestation? I hear they just lowballed a BCTS job in Quesnel at a bid of 22 cents. Maybe they're related? AK D and Dewan...

sometimes your crew boss can order them. did they mention anything like that when you spoke with them ?

went with the zamberlan's

Someone else had suggested the Glaciers... but I didn't see them at MEC. I may have seen them at the Expedition Shoppe. I will check there for sure too.

Hey... so my name is bhappy (literally) well it comes to that at least. It's Barbara and this'll be my first season planting. I guess I'll be forced to "bhappy" while planting. Sounds good to me. Mostly been reading to store as much information as possible before the season starts.... and ...

Had a few friends who worked in Quebec... some of the companies they worked for no longer exist or are not planting this season. I know someone gave me a contact with one guy planting in the Mauricie area. You might want to look into that region... I'm sure some companies in Northern QC are pretty d...

Just make sure this isn't you...

Just started this Insanity workout as preseason training. 60 day intensive interval training workout. Painful and lots of work but I think it might be worth it.
Any thoughts?
