Winter time at the cabin is always a slow time. We close down camp from December to around the end of March. Drain the water and the whole 9 yards. We still wonder up there for a few hours every week or so just to check out everything, along with putting out a little feed over the winter to help out the game. One thing I have really became fond of is planting trees. This year I insulated a little shed we had under our porch and turned it into my grow room. I got have a space heater running that keeps it 70 degrees on the dot! With most of my seeds coming from folks on here, my trees are coming in strong!
The chinkapins were my first to germinate. They are about ready to be moved to a one gallon root pouch.
My favorite trees the chestnuts are in the same boat as the chinkapins!
Half of these are pin oaks and the other half are chestnut oaks.
The sawtooths have been the late bloomers, they have just started to pop in the last 2 weeks!
I learned last year that the persimmons are very late to germinate. I have some of those in the pots on the ground in dirt and keeping them moist. I also have some burr oaks, pawpaws, black oaks and Japanese dogwoods that are potted and will take the place of some of my others that get moved to a one gallon root pouch.
