I Have 3 Young Mayhaw Trees (no Blooms Yet)On My Property — Swamp/woods. I Have A Big Ol Cedar Tree And 2 Small Ones, Say 5 Foot Tall

Question

Can I just cut the cedars down and rot away? Would like to NOT BURN — say cut and drop – am I in trouble ? Help and thank you. 3 young trees 5/6 foot tall nothing yet ,[blooms] letting them grow wild. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Answer 1

Are you saying you want to cut them down and leave the wood to decay? That is up to you but it may be a fire hazard. The wildlife would love it though. Here are some options for speeding up tree stump decay.
