In addition, groups of conifer seedlings growing too densely may be thinned. By carrying out early cleaning you ensure the growth of your seedling stand and prevent stand damage that would otherwise occur in an over-dense forest at the time of first thinning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Early tending is carried out when the crop pine or spruce seedlings are about one metre high \u2013 i.e. 4\u20138 years after planting. In planted birch stands, early cleaning is usually not needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/kaikalpalvelut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Taimikonhoito-Mustonen-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-77\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kaikalpalvelut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Taimikonhoito-Mustonen-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/kaikalpalvelut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Taimikonhoito-Mustonen-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/kaikalpalvelut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Taimikonhoito-Mustonen-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/kaikalpalvelut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Taimikonhoito-Mustonen-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/kaikalpalvelut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Taimikonhoito-Mustonen.jpeg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In early tending, deciduous undergrowth that is sprout-origin and clearly taller than the conifers is removed completely. Seed-origin silver birches that are of equal height to or shorter than the conifers are left to grow sparsely. The conifer seedlings being grown and the retained seed-origin silver birches must be at least one metre apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other deciduous trees are also spared, especially in gaps. If necessary, conifers growing less than half a metre apart are also thinned so that the best seedling is left on the site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Timely early tending is worthwhile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/kaikalpalvelut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/varhaisperkaus_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-79\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kaikalpalvelut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/varhaisperkaus_1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/kaikalpalvelut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/varhaisperkaus_1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kaikalpalvelut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/varhaisperkaus_1-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The pricing of early tending is based on the difficulty classes of young-stand tending, which rewards the forest owner for timely silviculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>State forestry support is available for early tending.
