I planted Bur Oak acorns in Rootmaker root pruning pots. I used my seed mix with Micronutrients and fertilizer. I will follow up this video with updates as the Bur Oak Acorns begin to sprout. I also give the first glimpse into my backyard nursery. It is still a work in progress but it is getting there.

A little update, The bur oaks are starting to sprout up, a few more come up each day! wil do an update video soon!
Great video. Love that you’re growing trees from your Dad’s tree. I’m in inland central coast California and saw 2 Bur oaks in a parking lot randomly. This year they dropped the massive batch so I harvested hundreds of them. I’m on a ranch and plan to plant a ton of them. It may sound odd but these are some of the most edible acorns. Not as flavorful as regular nuts but you only have to shell and soak them once. Then can toast them or grind into flour. Zero irrigation, fertilizer, pesticides. Incredible nutrient profile of fats carbs and protein.
thanks for the look at your setup in the backyard. really enjoy a behind the scenes peek at how you organize and arrange all your plant projects 👍
Thanks Neva, I am so excited to get the greenhouse setup, will be soon!
Bro 😎 so impressed by what your doing. inspiring to say the least.
Well done. Very helpful!
Now all you have to do is worry about squirrels digging up the nuts and carrying them off. I have to screen mine in.
I think coconut coir works better than peat and soaks up water faster.
I can’t find these pots anywhere. The link you shared has changed to a different pot
Where do you get the trays?
Where do you get those seed trays?
How long does it take for dried white oak acorn to germinate. I planted mine over a month ago indoors under a grow light with so far no success
If soil temps are warm enough less than a month, Have not had much success with trees indoors myself
Do you ever have problems with squirrels? If so how do you keep them away?
Yes I for sure had problems with squirrels, once one found my seeds I tried trapping and relocating. Still lost some to them though, Just have to try and protect them until they can survive without the nuts anymore.
How do I get the Caps off the acorn?
What is “recipe” you used for your soil mix?
Do you sell acorns ?
