Tree Care
In the modern world of soil compaction and environmental pollution, tree health and life expectancies tend to increase with responsible cultivation practices. For example, they are more likely to maintain proper form and growth if the particular planting, pruning, spraying and watering needs are met. Contributors typically want to know about a tree's planting depth and width, potential pests and stresses, pruning and watering schedules, and treatment options.

How do you start a new tree from a helicopter?
Indeed new trees can be started from a helicopter in a number of ways.
Helicopters can spread seeds of trees to sprout and grow.
A helicopter can deliver seedling trees, or even bare root trees to be planted in remote areas.
Helicopters can relocate any size tree.
Even very large trees can be relocated without having to take down wires, trim other trees along streets to accommodate transport, stop traffic, etc.
It would have to be a very special tree or difficult location to warrant such an effort.
For example a helicopter could lift and place a larger tree in the garden top of a sky scraper, instead of waiting for a little tree to grow.
Let's be careful here. Is it not possible the question is about sycamore seeds and some others that are like little helicopters when they descend to earth. The seed is treated like any other seed.
Yes, of course. Seeds from various trees that appear to helicopter in the air can start a new tree.
Maples, Ash, Sycamores and others produce seeds that catch air and whirl, giving a helicopter appearance.
On a windy day it can be observed these helicopter like seeds are taken up and carried some distance by the wind. The whirling slows the seed's decent giving it a better chance for the wind to catch and carry it, to be dispersed far away from the tree. So the helicopter type seed, by design, is one strategy trees use to distribute and reproduce away from the parent tree.
Another strategy trees use, is to produce lots and lots of seeds. So there is a probability some will survive, grow and mature, to produce more seed.

How do you estimate the weight of a tree?
You might calculate the volume of the main trunk, approximating it by the formula of a cylinder. You might add some of the bigger branches, by the same method, if you want more accuracy. Then you multiply the volume you obtain, by an assumed density - use the value of water or a little less.
