  1. I just pulled one off yesterday morning and started on the antibiotic. Had one 2 years ago too. I normally use permethrin throughout the spring and summer but not on my deer hunting clothes. I will now!

  2. Root trapper bags are a plastic type material on the outside and a coarse fabric on the inside that prevents the roots from J hooking and winding around the outside of the container - as I'm sure you've seen in many plants grown in plastic pots.               As far as the Walmart chestnuts, I started with 6 of those 3 years ago and 3 of them died the 1st year, After that I decided to grow my own. I've since planted 40 -50 and only lost a handful and the ones I started from seed have caught up to the Walmart trees in growth. I like my results better.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             They say 3-5 years but I don't fertilize or do anything special with them so I would expect closer to 5-7 years.

  4. I have grown about 75 Dunstan Chestnuts over the last 2 years from seed. I start them in the fall in the refrigerator until they start to root and then grow them under grow lights until the end of May when I move them outside. In September I plant them and fence them. They are between 3 and 5 feet tall by then.
