What is the life cycle of balsam?

The life cycle of balsam, specifically Balsam Fir (Abies balsamea), begins with seed germination, which typically occurs in spring. The young seedlings develop into saplings, growing over several years as they establish roots and branches. As they mature, they transition into adult trees, producing cones that release seeds for reproduction. This cycle can take several decades, with mature trees living for 30 to 100 years or more, depending on environmental conditions.
