Should say make per hour


Youre not paid by the hour. Its paid by the tree planted.
I set myself a minimum of making 200$ a day and I made a max of 500$ in a day.
It all depends on how good the land for planting is and how much cents you are making per tree.
I cannot give an hourly wage due to those factors.

Can you give a description of your activities? What exactly is tree planting?


tree planting is exactly what it sounds like. you plant trees. for me i was planting spruce or pine tree that were in a sapling state. roughly a year old. you wear tree planting bags that hold from 250trees-500trees at a time. you bag up as many as you are comfortable with carrying and go into the piece of land that was cut for you but your supervisor and put the trees in the ground.

of course there are quality rules that you must abide by in order for the tree to survive. you can fail a block(the land you are in) and not get paid for anything. fortunately i never failed a block and was paid for all my work. if you have more specific questions feel free to ask.

Give me some advice on planting !


plant smart and not hard. youll learn what to do and what to avoid to maximize what you plant a day.

great experience. financially its a great idea for me to go again.

You payed roughly 21$ a day to live. This covers all food, water, transportation and living grounds. Food and water are basically endless which i was skeptical of not getting enough of prior to heading out to plant.
So you pay 7$ per meal. so on off days or on camp move days you sometimes pay 7$ or 14$ depending on how much they serve. Off days on spent in the cities in hotels in which you cram as many people into a room as possible to reduce the cost of living that night to like 10$.

fapping is a good question. i refrained from fapping during the work weeks and finally fapped after like 3 weeks in. i however got the bush goggles after like 2 weeks and starting taking down some of the female planters. i stuck with the two hottest ones i could find and banged them for majority of the season.

this turned into a great experience where my good buddy and i had a ganger with 2 of the girl planters. he ended up having a major whiskey dick and i forever can call him soft serve now because of it haha

as much as i hated every second of planting trees, it was definitely the best summer of my entire life. you meet enough people that suffer through the same shit as you so it makes it easier.

honestly maybe a little in my legs but i lost a bunch on the upper half. the only workout i had all 3 months was tree planting. i did not even attempt to do a few push ups or sit ups. theres really no energy left to work out.

my calves benefitted the most from the season. youre walking/speed walking with weights(trees) on tough terrains for 10hours a day roughly.

yes this happens every summer. summer is the most popular season to tree plant. there are numerous companies that employ and planting locations could be from ontario to BC to alberta to quebec to newfoundland.

you can start planting for spring season in february and plant all the way to october.
