Daisugi (台杉) is a Japanese technique related to pollarding, used on Cryptomeria (sugi) trees.[1][2][3] The term roughly translates to "platform cedar".[4]
When applied in a silviculture context, the daisugi method requires trunks to be pruned every 2-4 years in order to maintain the straight, clear grain that they are coveted for.[5][6]
