I have a chestnut orchard.i started buying 1 variety we chose. Later, I tried the refrigerator method for 2 years with zero success. I found Morgans first video after he did it. So determined i tried it the third year with 96% success!! I've been doing this method ever since. We now have 1000s of trees. Thank you Morgan!

I'm in Western WA where it's cold enough to snow most years, but I failed to sprout a single chestnut for 2 years straight, using buckets & seeds from a big tree on our land. Google says 2-3 months at 34-40 degrees. So I'm gonna try the fridge method now...Maybe if I include damp sand in the bags, that could increase the chance...? Might have to treat them now and then with hydrogen peroxide solution to stop mold.

@@WilliamFluery What is a cheesecloth used for? Cheesecloth is a versatile tool with many uses, including: Cheesemaking Separates solid cheese curds from liquid whey. Cheesecloth is used to make many popular cheeses, including ricotta, queso fresco, and paneer. Straining Cheesecloth is often used to strain broths, stocks, custards, and more. It can also be used to juice lemons without the seeds or pulp. Sifting Cheesecloth can be used to sift flour or confectioners' sugar. Cover a jar with cheesecloth and secure it with a rubber band or canning ring. Bundling herbs and spices Bundle herbs and spices in cheesecloth and tie with twine to simmer in sauces, broths, or wine. Wrapping Cheesecloth can be used to wrap fruitcake while it's ripening, or to wrap poultry while cooking to keep it moist and tender. Decorating Cheesecloth can be used to drape around windows for Halloween, or at rustic weddings. Thickening Cheesecloth can be used to thicken yogurt. Cheesecloth is made of woven cotton cloth. It's safe to use in the microwave or boil, and it won't affect the taste or quality of food. Cheesecloth comes in different grades, which are distinguished by the number of threads per inch. The more layers of cheesecloth, the finer the particles it will trap.

Not a big fan of them spreading like wild fire or the take your eye out thorns. Appreciate the thought about bees, but surely other flowering trees would be better?

@@paulnovak833 I doubt hey have a TC lab set up for chestnuts...so most probably vegetative cuttings (same as cutting houseplants and rooting them, just slower). You can root tree branches and get new trees from them, takes a bit of patience but it's not hard. Some perlite, water, maybe root hormone and time, and you can get a bunch of new trees for free :) if you're interest google it, people often do that for roses, but those big flowered roses don't have good roots, they are usually grafted and won't grow well from such cutting. But I assume something hardy like a chestnut won't have that problem.

I'm SO OBSESSED with the apple tree we used to have when I was growing up here. My dad and mom said it was a 6 variety tree and that they had a dog (way before I was born) who broke off a few of the grafts. When I was a kid, we had these apples all over the tree...they were the MOST DELICIOUS things ever. They were red/green speckled, and had that weird corking near the stem...yah know, the rusty brown stuff that's rough and looks like a scab? Anywho, they were the best! You could eat them raw and sliced or bake them...pretty much anything. They were sweet and somewhat tart, and were juicy and somewhat crisp and dry, but juicy! No mealiness whatsoever. I don't even know what the rootstock was, and/or if the whole tree reverted. Anyway...I dream of finding those apples again!

Black Locust has the highest BTUs when used as firewood, and absolutely beautiful grain for wood working! They also smell really good when they bloom.

This is awesome. I've got a bunch of chestnut trees. So seeds are not an issue. I've been thinking about this for a while. But didn't want a bunch of people coming to my house.

Congrats on the hydraulics, you got it done a lot faster than I thought you would! It’s cold out there man😂 I’m considering pulling the trigger on it myself (not getting any younger) I’ll be watching to see how they work out for you. Nice intro too!

You can get an idea of how Audobon ship their bare root trees for only $10. They use like a gel and send in a package. Great way to cut costs for postage. 🌳

Profit in 1 season with trees. Who would known. Now I'm kicking myself in the ass for selling my share of 5.5 acres out in the country by a stream that used to be a baseball field. lol We had a building there with power and legal outhouse that we had rebuilt. A double, side by side. Nice one. lol Thanks for the information. Doubt I'll ever start growing them but now I know it's a fairly easy option to get into that is very low overhead start up and not going to eat up my time to make money else where. Sharing information is nice. thank you.

Yes, you need to name your goat crew. But also write a book about the goats antics. From what i can tell, this would cover a number of different micro environments and places around the fsrm, plenty of adventure, and I'm sure an over-all theme which may be the most difficult part as you select a single one.

Thank you Morgan !!! When I was younger I wanted to make a tree farm on my one acre in Connecticut. My fate was different however because I had a law degree and I was planning to return to Texas. Now I'm old and I'll need to be happy with watching your video and living the dream of a tree farm vicariously. Thank you for giving the world more trees !!!

U.S. Customs confiscate those seed upon returning to U.S. Actually any types of seeds. FYI, when you are driving by a car into California, CA Ag. have booths that you stop your car and they ask you if you have ANY types of fruits or vegetables. They ask you to dump it into their garbage container.

I have 30 Acres had for 15 years I've always had this in the back of my mind I was at the person's house that I bought the acreage from and he had trees all growing in lines and he showed me the trees that he didn't cut grass around compared to the trees that he did and I couldn't believe the difference in the growth he told me it's very important to cut it down as low as possible around the trees you can get almost 50% more growth

If people want to grow trees, you can start with collecting seeds from forests are parks nearby. If you know tree species, you can look for high quality specimens and collect acorns from under the tree, and start those the same way Morgan does chestnuts. Not sure about marketing them, but you can try.

That looks like a classic Stormy Kromer hat. I grew up seeing them in Wisconsin where they originated in the early 20th century. More recently they are made in the UP of Michigan. Great product.

Kind of like e-commerce something I learned a lot about when I work at Universal Studios. Interesting might be a different way of packaging shipping and having your labeling system for shipping and receiving.
