BilletHead Posted May 13, 2018 Author Posted May 13, 2018 Well another season has started. Did some cleaning up on the original planting. Got rid of the cattle panel and fence post enclosure. Big enough now I will not have to worry about the occasional deer browsing leaves but maybe some rubbing in the Fall. If I worry about that I can use a bit of hardware cloth to alleviate the potential problem, Catkins are beginning to form on all of these trees, While checking on the transplants in other places of the yard I found catkins on one tree. Hopefully more will begin to show. One transplant where I had two nuts grow trees together was beginning to die. Further inspection found where beetles, thinking powder post type were in the tree. I quickly cut the bad tree out and spray painted the stump with latex paint hoping to not see the other tree infected, Last years crop was consumed but this seasons harvest I will be starting more trees next Spring. The ones I planted last Spring are all over the place. Ham now has a patch, Grizwilson has some on his place too. I gave some to a neighbor, say neighbor but he is a friend who lives a few miles away. Well he and his three sons have some going on their places. One stopped by the other Evening and asked If I started more if he could get some. You bet and he will , BilletHead Ham and tho1mas 1 1 "We have met the enemy and it is us", Pogo If you compete with your fellow anglers, you become their competitor, If you help them you become their friend" Lefty Kreh " Never display your knowledge, you only share it" Lefty Kreh "Eat more bass and there will be more room for walleye to grow!"

Growing like gangbusters. 2019 and 2020 lots of nuts. Catkins and now on and getting longer. Soon they will fuzz out and the beetles and bugs will pollinate. Don't know when I last updated but bees do not work over the catkins. Mostly beetles do the work. You can go back in the post and compare how they have grown. some of the trunk bases are close to 8 inches in diameter now. Maybe more did not put a rule across them.
