Abstract
In the preceding paper the author reported the results of stem analysis by measuring each year's diameter after cutting in 4 stands.
This paper reports the growing process of individual trees in a stand. As the result, it was observed that several patterns had been formed among the individuals. The patterns are formed according to the positions, caused by thinning in the stand or cutting of the neighbouring stand.
If we want to know the growing process of individual trees in connection with the environment, attension must be paid to thinning or cutting. However, in the center of the stand, the annual ring width were not influenced so remarkably by the thinning as the cutting of the neighbouring stand.
