slippinlipjr OP I make Calds fer a livin S Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 6,239 somewhere around 112.	All of the trees have budded out here in LA. They have been for a while. Every oak tree is in full bloom. The forecast next week calls for a possible hard freeze. If this happens of course the new growth will be killed back. So, will there be any acorns next fall if this occurs? Are there some trees that are more susceptible to having their crop destroyed by a freeze than others? I know red oaks take 18 months to mature their crop. Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Ctrl+Z thesharkguard.com

The old timers ( including info passed down to me) believed that early frost's were the determining factor of acorn production, but like I said at least the research I've seen points to these other factors as being better determinants.

I know red oaks take 18 months to mature their crop. I hear this same thing every single year. Whether it's oak trees, or fruit trees, the doomsday scenarios are always wrong. I've never seen a year without akerns or peaches/pears.

Hope we get some this coming season, but if not, the corn and soybean fields will feed them. Just means I need to get started and plant more :-) To God Be The Glory!

How many people am i willing to sacrifice for freedom? Everyone. All of them... Do not regret growing older, it's a privilege denied to many!

April 8 of that year t was 20 degrees, sleeting/snowing and a 20 mph wind from the north. EVERYTHING got frozen out. No fruit trees had fruit. No mast trees produced mast. I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time. NRA Life Member

I predict this girl will have an accident whilst out hiking or a robbery gone bad if she keeps it up. Nobody kills like an old school politician. The kingmakers will let her develope a following that can be transferred to a replacement, then whack! Last edited by JohnnyLoco; 03/01/19 11:59 PM.

We hunt 2400 acres in southwest Colbert County and not a single red oak or white oak had acorns. We walked the property all bow season and couldn’t find a single acorn when they are normally raining acrons Any day in the woods is a good day
