Yep
I grew about 40 from acorns that are about 6 yrs old now. Some of them are over 20 ft tall now. They grow very fast when you fertilize and water them. I should have acorns on some of the bigger ones this year.

What I been hearing. Bout 6-7 years n you got acorns
Do Sasquatches like those acorns?
Nice DD, be a pretty site to have a stand of tall oaks on your property in several years, looking good!!
Thanks. I have another spot I planted Dunston Chestnuts. It's about 100 yards from the sawtooth. Be real good during bow season
Food plots for crappie? I didn't know they liked acorns. I swear I learn something everyday!Quote:

Bowhunting here the deer prefer the swamp chestnut oaks and chinkapins over all others.The other, less preferable ,are still important for later in the year though.
The dunstons are rated very well and I hope to get some planted.QDM always stresses the importance of diversity and is a good info source...
Have you had any experience with chickasaw saw plums? I do not but QDM seems to like them.Just wondering about them.
My understanding on the plum is it's what we see on the side of dirt roads, just a wild plum. I planed a couple this year. Those and a couple of mulberrys
I saw a craigslist free ad for chickasaw plums. They guy is going to cut them down if no one wants them.
I've got about 20 plum tree sprouts you can have..nice size plums..
