Good to know:

Trees grow a new layer under the bark every year. But some trees, like redwoods (sequoias) and firs (abetos) for instance, grow more layers in a single year than others.

Don’t forget to divide the result by 2

Example:

If the trunk of the tree measures 200 centimeters, you divide 200 by 2 and the result is approximately, 100 years old (HALF of the measurement).
