>>1442076Coppicing is a fast way to get nice straight wood for whatever you want. If it needs t o be thicker you just wait longer. Normally, you have plots setup. Each plot is 1 year apart from the next. You have x number of plots for x number of years you want to wait. Then you can start cutting down 1 plot per year. By the time you get to the last plot, the first plot will be ready to cut again the following year. So you always have about the same amount of wood every single year.
>How long can you abuse a root system like that, does it ever give up?If you do it correctly, it can last generations. This lime tree is coppiced every 20 years and is around 2,000 years old.
