I would probably pull off the female flowers or the burs when they form. When trees are still pretty young I try to pick off any nut/fruit starting to from so that the tree just focuses water and nutrients on increasing growth instead of production. This may not be the right thing to do or a good thing to do but to me it makes sense and it has never caused me any problems.

Cool video! Thanks for sharing. Something I have been told that is great for getting trees to increase flower/catkin production is adding Boron to the soil. Your soil may could use it and it may not need it. Just wanted to share as it seems boron greatly increases flower production. ( I have seen it used for chestnuts and oaks I am not sure about fruit trees but I assume it would work as well). Look into this if you ever get some time, you may want to try it. Love the videos, keep it up!!

You don't want my advice. I'm 21 and 0 for chestnuts. I've decided my place has more trees than I need already.

My chestnuts are dead or dying from all this rain. They turned brown and all the leaves fell off. Last year was the complete opposite with no rain. Storm came through last week and broke off a very big apple tree 3’ off the ground, broke my 9’ pawpaw at the ground line, broke my Fuju persimmon in half and 3 old peach trees. Broke a lot of limbs in my pecans and blew a huge willow tree over on my neighbors property. The ground was solid white with hail. That destroyed my garden and 16 varieties of figs with their big leaves. I’d rather have this flooding than no rain if I had to choose between the 2. My well water looks like tea. Does that every time we get floods. I drink it and survive.

Now how long do the seedlings stay in the pots? I planted acorns in a large container. The nuts that rooted I put in pots. I ended up planting about 25 rooted nuts right in the ground. Keep the videos going. I like hearing what other people are doing with the oaks.

I am growing some American chestnuts in Europe. Not sure if they are pure but definitely have American ancestry and are not 100% European chestnuts. Also i subscribed

I have my doubts whether removing nuts from sapling will prevent predators from eating your saplings, please post the results after you have had them in open space for a while. I would be interested to know what was the outcome.

1020 east grove was home for me i remember this i was in the 5th grade. Horrific an tragic

Did any of them grow?

Can I contact you for an issue we are having with our SIM card? It’s sending our call to voicemail rather than triggering the trap.

@Matt Is you moms name Banita?

I've seen that same 110 watt panel produce over 100 watts many, many times.

Does it empty the tank? How clean is the fan spray mode?

Thinking about growing some paw paw in Austin, i might have take your advice and get the seedlings vs seeds

Subbed channel has interesting content, hog traps, chests nuts and other dope stuff

I have a pawpaw loaded with blooms and most of my other pawpaws mostly died from last summer. They were 8’ tall and died to the ground. I watered them every week. They’re in my yard which is terrible soil for pawpaw. Sand and rock. I wanted them close so I could water them easier. I wish I had another one to hand pollinate them. I have now lost 2 pecan trees from last summer. One I planted in the 1980s and the other in the early 90s. That oldest tree blocked the sun off my home. Out of around 100 pecan trees, that’s the one I needed the most. Do you know what your soils PH usually averages? Chestnuts like acidic soil. Mine runs around 5.7 which is unusual for this county. That’s why I planted chestnuts here. I’d try blueberries if they didn’t require so much watering.

It was awesome wasn't it!? I guess that was Jupiter to the lower right. Pretty cool!

looks like it has features of both the white oak group and the red oak group

I was there still a school kid. It’s as clear as crystal. I’ll never forget.

Awesome video Matt. Thanks for sharing! I am going to try to grow some English White Oaks this year. I have heard they start bearing large acorns that deer love in as early as 7 years grown from seed. I plant all my trees in a similar manner as shown in your video. Good luck and happy growing, Russell Mtns of NC.

I planted most of my trees indoors this winter and I just planted a bunch of Tupelo and Mexican Buckeyes in ground today. Just finished at dusk. Planted them for my beehives. I’ve got a bunch of other flowering tree seeds 3 months stratifying. I’ll pot them up this week. I’ve got a bunch of extra Tupelo to sell. I’d have planted those other species this winter also if I’d have found the seeds earlier. I wanted to beat the summer heat and drought. I lost a big Oconee pecan to that horrible summer. I have too many trees to water. What can’t survive will be replaced with more drought resistant species. I planted the Tupelo around my pond. If these Texas summers keep getting worse I’ll be planting cactus I guess. I sold some trees today to a lady who recently moved here from Africa. She said Texas was hotter than Africa. I’d have never thought that.

Just got my first batch of these.

The tree is looking great. I wonder if it will get as big as the American Chestnut. I only just learned about how we lost all these trees; glad you rescued that one.

Sorry to say those aren’t long shots I have longs on my 08 they are at the back of my saddle bags about 6” longer than those are and as loud

Hey Matt. I have started selling the Concordias as bare roots and also potting them. I don't have a picture to put on my website. Would you mind if I did a screen shot of your Concordia to put as a thumbnail? Thank you

Do you lime or fertilize any of your trees? Always enjoy your tree videos. Take Care, Russell MTNS. Of NC.

I just fertilized around 100 trees today and one of my chestnuts is fully leafed out. I saw another one that I’m pretty sure is dead. That brutal summer we just had killed most of my pawpaws. The leaves dropped in the heat and they all put on new leaves in the fall and then the cold hit them.

Sweet trees 🌴 I got 100 Dunstan seeds in the fridge I'm going to try and grow some. I got my air prune box built and I'm getting dirt ready to fill it?! I hope they do good cause there pretty expensive to buy already in pots

What a great story! And magnificent trees. Grandpa did good by you all, planting them all those years ago. I've wanted to plant pecan trees, but am borderline just within the ideal climate range. I planted Shagbark hickory instead last year, but they are tiny seedlings and I'll probably never see a harvest lol. I wish I knew about them earlier and planted them 20 years ago.

Great looking DCO! Thanks for the video! I planted 3 last year, (they were each about 2 feet tall); then I caged them from deer browsing just in case. Have you noticed deer browsing on your DCO's?

How old are your trees?

What's the difference between Dunstan and European chestnuts? I bought some nuts from the grocery store last fall that were imported from Italy, but my question would be the species of the nut if it came from Italy. I checked the 10 seeds today that I put in the refrigerator last fall and some of them are just starting to sprout.

I'm in dallas and I built a nest box 3 months ago and today we got our first screech😊😊😊😊

Did they end up dropping late?

How old were they when they started producing?!

Don't take much to get wore out this time of yr! Nice trees, im gonna start 100 seeds this yr and see what i come up with, gonna pick out the best ones for me and some for my mom's place! Future deer food!😂

What kind of soil are you growing in?

Thanks man I appreciate the tip.

Trees look good Matt

Great video, Matt! A lot of helpful info. I'm currently stratifying a pound of Dunstan seeds, and am now figuring out my next step in the process. I love the use of PVC for the cages. My plants will spend their first year at my home in DFW, before being planted at our place in southern Oklahoma. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge!

Did the little tree hang onto those acorns last fall? I'm very intrigued seeing such a young tree set fruit. I'm adding a bunch to my property. Hoping they will be a good wildlife tree

Do you have a wine diagram? I have the exact same box.

Matt, can you help me hook up the wires on this controller?

Good stuff!

Does your speed talk sim still work currently?

Glad I tripped across this video . The neighbors chinese chestnut flowered great this last spring and by August it lost all its leaves and then out of nowhere it popped out some new leaves , not a tree full, and flowered again in September .

Where are you located

Hi! Do you still have any of the acorns to sell? I’m in Tennessee and most places that even sell seedlings are sold out.
