The pecan trees we planted last year are doing very, very well. Planting any tree is not a short-term investment. Pecan trees are usually sold bare-root here and so we have a very short window in which to plant them when they arrive. They are also not cheap and don’t produce any nuts for nearly eight years. That said, who doesn’t want more trees? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what did I do two year ago? I looked up how pecan nuts germinate. I have a love of propagating trees and have tried (and failed) to grow from seed a fairly wide variety of trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While researching chickens and compost making I came across Edible Acres (website LINK<\/a>), which, while a wonderful resource about using chickens to make compost, is a tree nursery which also has great content about growing nut trees from seed. So I tried it. To my utter surprise, not only did it work, it was easy<\/strong><\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Behold, my current batch of pecan seedlings: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Each little twig is a pecan tree not quite a year old. I got a bit carried away last year, so we have a lot. No matter, I couldn’t resist doing it again. Because, again, why not? So I’ve put a few of this years’ pecan nuts in a container to cold stratify for planting in September. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It really is as easy a putting a few pecans in fairly damp wood shavings in a covered containing and leaving them in a cold place. The nuts will start to germinate after a few months and then you plant them in deep flats where they live for a year. It’s ridiculously fun. Needing to pot up 100+ nearly 1 year old seedlings? Not quite as much fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

M\u00e1s \u00e1rboles de Pec\u00e1n<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Los \u00e1rboles de pec\u00e1n que plantamos el a\u00f1o pasado est\u00e1n creciendo muy, muy bien. \u00c1rboles no son inversiones de corto plazo. \u00c1rboles de pec\u00e1n son vendidos ra\u00edz desnuda y cuando compra tiene un tiempo muy corto para enterar. Tambi\u00e9n, no son barato y, en caso de pecanes, no da nueces antes de ocho a\u00f1os. \u00bfPero, en realidad, qui\u00e9n no quiere m\u00e1s \u00e1rboles? \u00bfEntonces, que hice hace dos a\u00f1os? Busqu\u00e9 c\u00f3mo germina nueces de pec\u00e1n. Encanto la propagaci\u00f3n de \u00e1rboles y lo he intentado, y he fracasado, plantar semillas de muchas variedades de \u00e1rboles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cuando estaba buscando informaci\u00f3n sobre la combinaci\u00f3n de gallinas y compost, encontr\u00e9 Edible Acres (LINK<\/a>). Ellos ofrecen mucha informaci\u00f3n sobre gallinas y la producci\u00f3n de compost, pero tambi\u00e9n es un vivero de \u00e1rboles, ofrece mucha informaci\u00f3n sobre la germinaci\u00f3n de nueces. As\u00ed que lo intent\u00e9. Para mi sorpresa, no solamente funciono, fue f\u00e1cil<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a1He aqu\u00ed, mi lote actual de pl\u00e1ntulas de nueces!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cada palito es un \u00e1rbol de pec\u00e1n de menos de un a\u00f1o. Plante demasiado, entonces tenemos muchos. No importa, no podr\u00eda resistir la oportunidad de hacer lo de nuevo. \u00bfPor qu\u00e9 no, s\u00ed? Puse algunas de las nueces que cosechamos este a\u00f1o en un contenedor para plantar en septiembre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Realmente es tan f\u00e1cil como poner algunas nueces en viruta mojada y dejar en un lugar fr\u00edo. Despu\u00e9s de algunos meses las nueces germinan. En la primavera, planta en tierra profunda donde vive por un a\u00f1o. Es muy divertido. \u00bfSabe que no es muy divertido? Plantando en macetas nuevas 100+ \u00e1rboles j\u00f3venes.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
