Pine seedlings aid woodland plan on Colorado farm
Adolph cooperates on planting 2000 slash pine on his Colum Reese Lane farm five miles north of Colorado City. Seedlings spaced 6 by 6 feet use a sharpshooter to open holes. Pines to 10 feet in 50 years on sandy soils with proper management yield annual income increases. Pine seedlings can be bought via Texas Forest Service at 5.50 per thousand FOB. The district holds about 2900 acres of pine timber with more suitable land for forestry development and district technicians offer assistance in plan development.
