I am in the process of building a house. I came across a really good deal on ¾” unfinished cypress hardwood flooring (beautiful stuff). Each plank is 5 ½” wide by 6’ long. The flooring is “rustic grade” meaning some of the planks have open knotholes. I will cut the knots out and have random lengths. The boards are T&G on the edges but are flush on the ends. My question is. Will I have to screw and plug the ends, or can I just square up the ends and butt them together?

Thanks

Just square the ends and butt them together.

Just square the ends and butt them together.

- and then nail about 2 in. from each end.

Or T&G each end.
