Über diesen Titel

 As they say, if you have livestock you're going to have deadstock. That's always in the back of my mind when I check on the cattle and the calf I noticed today didn't look right. Also, I have a few minutes to check on the tree seeds that I put in the fridge.
Jan 11 - tree seeds placed in damp paper towel then stored in ziploc bags in the fridge
Feb 25 - checking the seeds 46 days later

Walnut, birch, silver maple, sugar maple, oak.

Conclusions? Some of the sugar maple seeds have germinated, so I should transplant them to soil right away. The silver maple seeds just don't look good, and it was probably a mistake to vernalize them in the fridge. I should have just planted them last spring when they fell. Too early to tell with the walnut, birch and oak.

Send me questions, comments, or advice about growing trees from seed.
