We picked up enough that I’m planing to just direct send them. Do the pin/black acorns need to be cold stratified? If not, will it hurt them to keep them in the bag in the fridge with the whites?

Thank you fellas, I was hoping for pin and/or black oaks. We don’t have any of those on the Massey.

Another oak identification question. We picked up a bunch of acorns, reds and whites, at a rest area in Iowa. These came off of two of the pointed leafed oaks. The acorns on one of them are a little bigger. The biggest identifier is the stripes on the nut; the stripes are kind of washed out in...

Picked up a Walmart bag full of acorns at a rest area outside of Lamoni, IA. There were at least 4 different types of white oaks and a couple reds. One of the white’s in particular, was absolutely loaded and the acorns were weeks behind all of the other trees. I have a buddy going up there to...

Too warm here for much activity. The temps in Wisconsin spoiled me….

Good luck!

When it comes to apples, we cheated this time. This orchard was right outside of Mishicott and it was a joy talking to the owner. The honey crisps in particular are WONDERFUL!

This is the latest addition to the acorn ziplocks. This was in a state park. The acorns are about the size of a small thimble. Is it a black oak?

So is there a white oak in the white oak family? I’ve always called all rounded tip leafed oaks white.

Hey fellas, need some help. I picked up these acorns at a Loves in IL on the way up to Wisconsin today. Any idea on the tree? I’m hoping to pick up a bunch more while up here; I have my ziplocks ready! :D

Also, a pretty good looking buck finally showed up on the cell cam at the back foodplot back home. Of course, he’s not close. :rolleyes:

Dawna and I arrived in Mishicot, WI early this evening. Looking forward to a relaxing few days. It’s really beautiful here; the leaves are just beginning to turn. It’s warm right now, but supposed to begin cooling down tomorrow. I picked up some white oak acorns on the way at a Loves in Central...

Got the last plot finished up this morning. It’s about half established clover. There’s a couple possibles that have been visiting it all summer. Hopefully, at least one of them sticks around. Neither are strangers.
