Tom G: I have not pocked up the mill yet. The builder is in Arkansas and it should be done this week. The ice storm hit them pretty hard.

david u: I made 4' stakes from cedar limbs and spray painted the tops white. I looked at survey flags, but they are short and fade. This way I can repaint the tops. I have not put many up yet, ran out of time. Sink them in about a foot and leave 3 feet sticking up. Remember to use cedar with some pink heartwood, the sapwood could rot. Are your trees going to be in rows? Some of mine are and I just marked the beginning and end of the row to line up on when mowing. A lot are not going to be marked since I am planting in an area that was flooded for over a year. The water weeds have died off and I got the trees in before the land weeds have seeded in yet. You will run over or cut some trees no mater what you do.
