Deliberately planting it seems a stretch but I suppose someone could do it to both attract deer and deter/channel humans.DaremoKamenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08775078298429534700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970975545475697571.post-3854430632289666722020-11-09T21:27:09.830-05:002020-11-09T21:27:09.830-05:00Cleaned Can.

It takes about 385,000 hemlock seeds to make a pound. There are about 26 seeds in a Hemlock cone.<br /><br />He also used to collect Fraser Fir seed. They have a limited growing area and won't survive below about 2,500 feet elevation.<br /><br />To get the seed, you have to use a shaker machine. It separates the seed from the cone and other detritus. Mike Guentherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13760305520055214986noreply@blogger.com
