This was hard to put into words for me. Here it goes I want to add some vitamins and or minerals every time I water my trees. I ran water lines to where I have trees. I want to hook up something directly to the spigots to where it siphons from the vitamin or mineral source to the water...

I ordered around 30 seedlings that I was going to split with a buddy, but I received around 60. So ended up planting 30 this past winter. The place I ordered from slips my mind right now, but it was from a tree farm in Florida. Great customer service. Not big on internet but great on the...

Been a while since I've posted anything on this site. But something unexpected happened that I would like to share. I ordered chinese chestnuts seeds from route 9 and received them in early November. I was able to plant them in groups of 3 on Nov 14. At the time I thought I had planted them...

This was 2 weeks before I discovered the hornets. Perfect day for a control burn. The burn went extremely well. The last pic is back at camp looking to where I burnt. This was about an hour afterward in the evening close to darkness, but you can’t tell from picture. Enjoy @

I have some chestnut trees 2-4ft tall coming sometime this week or early next week. I am assuming they were not grown in root makers. Burnt Ridge Nursery is where I I bought them from. What are the opinions of the HT folks on putting these trees in root makers at this size? I was planning on...

Not tags but what do you use to mark the tags? I do it every year but they disappear over time and with the post about Chinkapins, looks like I going to be planting more trees. Dang it. I have already ordered a different type of chestnut but only 3. Looks like 3 more now. And I haven't...

I have to order seeds because mine didn't fertilize. Since se Texas is a hot climate, would it be better to get chestnut seeds from a similar climate? Thanks

Can you please post a pic of your chestnut tree producing nuts and the age of the tree? I understand its probably not the right time of year to go visit your trees that the deer are eating. thanks

Im taking training courses at work so im bored. Half my chestnut seedlings died this past winter/spring. I almost positive it was from wet feet. Are they just susceptible when first planted or could build raised mounds with wood to keep them out of the "wetsoil" until the roots get going...

On another thread someone mentioned that they turn their tractor off before getting down to see what the problem is or checking to make sure everything is working properly. My tractor is manual. I turn off pto, lower rpms, and put it in neutral. I'm assuming some of you guys have something...

I keep checking them for Chestnuts to plant. They are getting closer. Are they on course for the time of year?

In your personal opinions, do you guys think that much rain (in a 4 hour period) will leach out the fertilizer that I put out for my trees at the beginning of April?

Just picked up 4 southern crabapples from Walmart this morning. They are from chestnut hill nursery where dunston chestnuts ( Food plot trees) are from. Bought them on a spur of the moment buy. Have no clue what the rootstock is, but am going to shoot them a message later. It says low...

I live in e. Texas and supposed to have 8 degree temperatures Monday going into Tuesday with the high of 23. Will it hurt the seedlings I’ve planted this year/last fall? Last single digit temperature was in 80’s I believe. Thanks
