W16 NOTE: Logs per tree & Blocks/Boards per tree-type-log have become variable (potentially based on some newly added variable tree size property). So these numbers have become general indicators.


The Sweetgum Tree is one of the many Trees found in the Hearthlands. Trees are a plentiful resource and they are vital to every player's success.

Some of the most basic materials a hearthling will require such as Boards, Wood Blocks, Boughs, and Branches are only obtained from Trees.
Every tree has some sort of Seed which the player can use in various recipes, or they can be used to regrow a higher quality tree, producing better materials.

Materials Produced

The Sweetgum Tree produces:

You may harvest up to 10 Branches before it is depleted.
You may harvest up to 3 Bark before it is depleted.
You may harvest up to 2 Sweetgum Seedpod before it is depleted.
Additionally, Sweetgum Trees also contain up to 5 Sweetgum Bough

All Trees will slowly replenish harvested materials, meaning all materials listed above are renewable.


The Sweetgum Tree produces 2 logs when felled. With each log producing:

Blocks per log:
32 blocks when cut with a Stone Axe.
40 blocks when cut with a Metal Axe.
Boards per log:
10 boards when cut with a Bone Saw.
16 boards when cut with a Metal Saw.
20 boards when processed by a Sawmill.
Note: These numbers only apply for logs from matured trees. Logs from growing trees will give different results.

Every Tree can be grown from its seed using a Treeplanter's Pot, or by planting the seed directly into the ground.
