The present disclosure includes various methods and devices for planting. One method embodiment includes providing a planting device having a frame, the planting device including a generally vertically oriented barrel and a ram slidable within the barrel for propelling a slip having a length placed therein. The method includes accelerating the ram, contacting the slip with the ram, and propelling the slip to a velocity such that the momentum of the slip is sufficient to fire the slip through an unprepared ground surface such that the slip penetrates the ground surface to a depth of at least 80% of the length of the slip. |
