I do know that other summoned woods are just 1" away from everything (terrain, objectives, all models) and that's per the Sylvaneth book. Refer to the specific spells and abilities.
For the first wood, I've always done 1" from enemy territory, 3" from other terrain, and 6" from objectives which meets both requirements of the GHB and the Sylvaneth book. I may be wrong on this one though.
This is almost spot on, but the GHB 2020 restrictions apply to wyldwoods that are set up during the battle, as well as the first wyldwood that is set up before deployment.

First Wyldwood: More than 1" away from terrain & enemy territory, more than 6" from objectives
Summoned Wyldwoods: More than 1" away from models, terrain features, & objectives
GHB 2020: More than 3" from other terrain, more than 1" from objectives
Put them all together, and you get the following placement restrictions...
First Wyldwood: More than 6" from objectives / More than 3" from other terrain / More than 1" from enemy territory
Summoned Wyldwood: More than 1" from objectives / More than 3" from other terrain / More than 1" from other models
