You can tell because of the way it is.
Neat

Here’s the rest:
Current year - year tree was planted = age of tree
???
Profit!
I think you’re looking for the one referring to lack of pixels
If X, then X
At least it’s not wrong
You could just ask. 🤷🏻♂️
Never ask a tree their age.
Or maybe you could just Google it.
When did someone train a Flat Earth AI to answer Google questions
This does have real implications in dendrochronology. If you were to take a beam from a structure built hundreds or even thousands of years ago, you can use ring spacing along with climate records of the area it was cut down in to determine when it was cut down, which will tell you the approximate age of the structure (and as a result, the tree). The rings can reflect events such as floods, fires, droughts, and periods of rapid growth, so if you can match those up with climate records and known samples, it works out the way the graphic describes.
Also a good way to make sure it doesn’t have any more birthdays
if you planted from seed, some trees from the nursery may be 8 years old or older, specially those that come rooted in 45 gallon containers
The great thing about this test is that this age value will remain constant after taking the measurements.
But how???
