How is the Acorn crop looking this year Naples had NOTHING last year hoping to see a great crop this year
I wasn't going to go this year due to lack of funds but the wife wants some peace that week so I think I need to tick her off more often

Spiker Apples are spotty here too Orchard down the road from me is loaded my trees have nothing 4 trees & I think I have about a total of 5 apples it was funny mine blossomed end of march but got a freeze at my house 1 mile down the road they were fine

I don't have any reports from PA yet on acorns, my guess with the lean rains all summer the crop will pretty weak. I'll have a report by this weekend.

 

[gfdeputy2]

have to agree HM (with the weather) good acorn crop here but like elswhere they are mostly on the ground already poss due to the lack of rain

 

[Hunting Man]

I'm hoping that's not the case, with a bad winter the deer could be in trouble.

 

[spiker]

Dep&Hm thats my thoughts also and i think the lack of rain had them drop early too.Ive never noticed them on the ground this early,hope some hang on to October.The apples took a beating with the early warmth and then the hard freeze.Good luck in Naples Dep.

Acorn Drop

I have a white oak and pin oak in my yard.We're in southern PA.The white oak is dumping acorns.I thought we had enough rain,although we did have a dry spell for a couple weeks.

Thanks Spiker always a good time no matter what
Even last year we say a lot of deer even without acorns Kill or no kill it is all about getting away with my buddies
just hoping for the good crop so I know where I would have put my stand but luckily last years lack of acorns taught us a lot
