Question

How much weight does a deciduous tree gain in summer?

Answer 1

It's at moments like this I ask myself, why is a grown-up wasting time looking at Y!A questions?

Answer 2

Oh must vary.  big trees .  little trees,    thickening of trunk and branches,  adding   twigs and leaves,  Oh anybody's guess

Answer 3

Probaly alot because the tree will swell up with water as water becomes less frequent in summer also in summer the days are longer and more light and heat so more energy is created from photosynthesis. also more leaves will produce to maximise photsynthesis =) hope its helped .

Answer 4

Under changing environmental conditions, biomass development on the tree and the stand level will differ from each summer growing season, regardless if the induced change is due to a shift in the general climate properties or to forest management. Under these conditions, tree biomass can not be derived from tables based on former investigations but has to be defined from particular biomass investigations, which generally calculate tree and stand biomass from sample branches using allometric relationships. Therefore, sample measurements on harvested trees are needed.Contrary to popular belief, it's weight gain does not depend solely on how much you feed it.
