They look good to me. You’ll have top growth before you know it: Matt Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes! Unless you can get these on clearance don’t buy into the hype. Dunstan is just a chestnut with mostly Chinese genetics. Nothing special. I will say that the Walmart trees do give you about a three year head start if you can find them for the right price. One of mine if blooming this year...

Yes! Those were the good old days. I’ve lost count at the number of discount Walmart trees I’ve planted over the years. Most end up surviving too. Matt Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Been scouting my Walmart waiting for markdown day. Still a little early yet. Probably another month. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Can’t remember if someone on here sent me some American chestnut nuts or not? I didn’t do a very good job of who sent me the seed. In any event I ended up with four viable nuts and here they are. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve had issues with delayed grafting failure. They look great, even for a few years, then all of a sudden it’ll just die. The one that I’ve had take so far has been a Buck IV on Chinese. It’s only a few years old now so who knows if it’ll survive long term. I’m not gonna give up though and keep...

Trying my hand at grafting again. This time with correct rootstock and graft stock to hopefully lessen incompatibility issues later on. Here’s a Black Satin graft on mollissima root stock. Matt Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Have any of you guys been fertilizing your bigger trees? I usually spread some 10-10-10 or 13-13-13, if I can find it @ 1lb. per 1” of trunk diameter btw. In case anyone was wondering. Anyway the last couple of years, my daughter has been showing rabbits in Spring for her FFA project in school...

They’ll put on top growth but it’ll be much slower. Just wish it would hurry up and decide to warm on up a little. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I grow outside. I don’t know about yall but I was looking at the forecast for next week but not much is going to germinate with highs in the mid 60s. I think there are a couple of days where the temps are in the 70s. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Finally got mine up and going. 45- 4” x 14” tree pots with a mixture of chestnut and oaks. All sourced from my trees except for the American Chestnut. Late DCO Allegheny Chinquapin AU Super Chestnut American Chestnut Sawtooth Oak Late Dropping Chinese Chestnut Concordia Oak Matt Sent...

Yes, actually makes it worth it to go to Walmart once a year. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Depends on how hot it is. Low 90s every other day. Mid 90s and above every day. Just have to go out and check them. Those RM18s dry out fast in extreme heat. Also depends on your soil. Best thing to do is get them out of the root pruning containers as soon as possible before it gets too hot and...

I used I plastic container from the dollar store that was slightly bigger than the tray and would set tray and all over into it. Fill with water up about 1/4 way on the pots and let it soak in from the bottom via capillary action. This works great for a few trays. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I can tell you from experience TUL works great on pigs. Don’t know about deer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I still hunt with the deer rifle I bought from my Uncle when I was 13 for $50. A 1976 Remington 308 bolt action. Only gun I’ve ever needed. I’m now 46. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ended up shooting two out of a group of about 10 that came out just after dark. No pics or vids as I was walking back to the RTV when the action took place and didn’t have time to hit record on the scope. I left the pigs in the woods as they weren’t fit to eat. Next one I get is going in some...

Waiting on old pig to come out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good deal. Just make sure that once they pull out they are to remove everything above and BELOW the surface. I know folks who did not have this in their contract and were left with a big mess once the term of the contract had expired. Also another instance where the solar company (a foreign...

Don’t do it! We are in the middle of a land grab here where I live in TX and farmers are signing over their property rights in droves to these solar companies only to find out the deal isn’t as sweet as they thought. You can’t even go take a pee on your own land once they take over and who’s...
