Do trees respawn?
Yah... Do they eventually regrow?

Would like to know as well?
Maybe you should remove the stumps to prevent that?

I've heard if you cut the stumps they have a 10% chance of growing back with every day that passes, but if I recall you had to leave the stumps for the tree to regrow in the first game.

I have not noticed any regrowth despite having gathered 1000+ logs from one area and having left the stumps, nor have I seen any confirmation of regrowing.

On day 28 and no logs have regrown yet, left all stumps.

we need a respawn feature... i really dont like the emptyness for my immersion when building a base... it mostly looks bad...
I've tried cutting down the stumps but in my experience they just reappear after you save, quit and reload. Just the stump reappears, not the whole tree. I have a feeling that implies that they do not regrow either.

You could avoid trees near where you're building, or just go with selective logging. If you think carrying everything a bit further is problematic, you could use the zipline to send them from a place further away. There are options, you don't have to clearcut the entire area :P

i think at least the small trees which give sticks should regrow...

i found this out on a website UNFORTUNATELY it's only capable of being done in multi player
"The answer to that question is Yes. The Trees grow back from the new saplings around the trees you have chopped down. Similar to its predecessor Forest, the trees grow back only if their stump hasn’t been chopped. If you clear out the tree stumps, they won’t respawn or regrow, again. So, the best way to grow back trees is to not clear out their stumps in Sons of the Forest.

Regardless, you can chop down trees for their essential resources and utilities. But this process is extremely slow as shared by several players in the Steam community (link). This has got several players wondering if they grow back. However, the players that want to speed up this process can use a specific console command. You can use the “regrowmode” to increase 10% the chance for the tree stump to grow back after you sleep."

from what i've read, is that saplings slowly grow into trees
don't think anything grows from stumps
