Beginner to treeplanting

[SirScrotsScribe]

I really need some better quality wood. My arrows are shit, and basically making my Q95 bow completely useless. I've never been a tree planter before so I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I used a Q19 pot and Q35 soil but the resulting tree gave me Q7 branches. So that means I've taken the normal trees and made them worse somehow.
I somewhat blame my herbalist table of unknown Q that I've had for a while so I destroyed it and made a better one.

Anyone have any tips on making trees? I'm apparently shit

It's softcapped by farming skill. And yeah, you want the best table you can make.

Also, what stage is this q7 tree in? Their quality rises as they grow.

Oh, I thought I read somewhere that it didn't matter what stage they were in. Well then I guess I'm not as bad as I thought then, they were pretty low in size when I checked.

I remember reading something like that too. But I think it was the fact that they don't change Q anymore between stage 3 and stage 4.

I could be wrong though, not sure.
