I'm looking to add a couple Yates and Arkansas Blacks along with preferred crab apple to pollinate. They'll be on approximately an acre. Looking for suggestions on very disease resistant semi dwarf root stock and a nursery to purchase from. I'm in zone 7B eastern Va. Thanks, Mark

Broad term I guess. More like taking the scion and rooting it. Can the scion wood produce roots by itself?

have any of y’all cloned persimmons? A neighbor has a few that produce well each and I would like to harvest a few branches if they’ll clone well. Thanks for any response. Mark

From what I remember reading about The Beniots is they were the stalking masters.

I’m going to check those guys out too.

Chainsaw, what topic was that thread in? It’s very interesting to me how they hunt. As long as I can remember “we” were told to stay clear from bedding.

I just currently discovered The Hunting Beast craze. It raises a few questions from me. How many of y'all employ this style of hunting and how successful has it proved to be? Thanks in advance. Mark

Is it just me or are long sleeve shirts being made with droopy armpits now? Having a tough time find some that fit good in the torso and long enough sleeves. Talking about Camo shirts. Any recommendations from the group?

I just ran across your podcast. Starting at episode 1, good information. Enjoying it more than some of the others. Great job!!!!

I have placed the ones that sprouted inside of a clear tote with a few holes drilled in it. I plan on moving them in and out of the shed over the winter. Matt, I need/want to clear an area for the "new" future trees.

Thanks for the offer. I took out the moss and dried everything. I believe that I will put the nuts in the 18 cell trays under a clear tote to provide a greenhouse environment and hope for the best.

I have very little peat and the beg has been open. I will remove the peat and dry everything. I believe that I will plant in trays and protect the best that I can. Thanks for your help. Mark

I had some last year do the same thing. The radical grew at least 2" and turned black and died. The nuts didn't do anything when I planted. Wasn't sure if they'd have a better chance of survivial.

I received some AC's a few weeks ago and I have them in the fridge with the sphagnum moss. The little rascles have sprouted radicals. Would it hurt anything to put them in root trapper cells and set them in the shed, and do I need to put the trays in bags? Thanks for the replies. Mark

Don't forget me from last year 144.
