[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1816313, member: 18945"] Hp, Back in 2011 in East Texas, many of the white and red oak trees put on a historic acorn crop. The ground crunched as you drove or even walked along, breaking the acorns. A state biologist later told me it was nature's way of reproduction. Not his exact words, but something along the lines of 'A tree somehow 'knows' it's being stressed and may not survive and like all other living things, makes one last stab at reproduction to try to carry on." Sure enough, a lot of those old oaks did die, especially the white oaks most noticeably in the spring of 2013. Beginning at the tops. It took several years for some but they eventually did die and I never saw another acorn crop that big. What kind of pecans do you have? Do you sell any to the public? [/QUOTE]
