growalot Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 A crisp cool 50 degrees when we woke and 53 right now leafs have been scattering the ground and the choke cherries and ash are starting to turn...beech have been dropping for a week and the mobs of crow have moved in for that. I drove home from the gym yesterday and spotted several, yes several wild apples with the branches broken down and browning. The trees were so loaded with growing apples that they looked like a pile of apples sitting over a stump. I had to warn our daughter to start picking apples off her tree before she ends up having the limbs snap off. Apples are just crazy abundant and big this year...need to get to camp and check on those. I love Fall 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landtracdeerhunter Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Still waiting for a summer. Heavy dews. The wild apples are full on the trees. Most are showing a nice pale red color. Some are falling daily, with deer coming in the evenings cleaning them up. Mature split husk hickory nuts are dropping. Oaks nuts are filling on the trees very nicely with few immature drops. Promising to be a very good crop. The inch rainfall in a heavy thunderstorm Tuesday evening give the growing a nice pickup. Last weeks plantings look very good. Nature is pumping in some great food sources from alsides for the first two weeks of doe season. This state AUT to take lessons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
