Ok so from what I can find and understand deer like mast (acorns and other nuts, Chestnuts are sweeter and of course much larger than acorns and also from what I understand once deer find them they act as a deer magnet)
What I have is a conundrum as last fall I put 50 Chestnuts in Peat moss and kept them in the refrigerator all winter, to see if I could get a few to start sprouting and maybe end up with a couple chestnuts trees. Well took them out and of the 50 nuts 38 of them have started to sprout. At present I have taken all the ones that sprouted and put them in 12 inch pots My problems now is what the heck am I going to do with probably 24 of them. Going to put a couple in the yard and several at my gold claim and where I go hunting So here is the thing if a member has property that they would like to put a chestnut tree or 2 on their property to act as a natural food source. Please drop me a PM and once the tress poke their heads through the top of the peat moss in the pots we can make arrangements for you to get a couple.
