What time of year is best to plant? I just got 2 HN trees that are in 10 gal pots. Should i wait till they drop all their leaves, should I wait until Dec. Jan. when it's closer to freezing? Thanks for the help.. Oh, and how far apart should I plant?
For bare root trees I wait until they drop their leaves to plant them. For potted trees you can plant them anytime between now and bud break. Just don’t let the roots see full sun or freezing cold air. Most people space them between 17 and 20 feet apart, depending on the variety of hazelnut tree. Don’t fertilize them going into winter or the salts in the fertilizer could kill them.
For the summer when they are already leafed out I would not head them until just before they break bud this coming spring. This way they will put on additional root mass and pull in all the nutrients from the leaves as they shut down this fall.
hii sir what is your hazelnut orchard elevation from sea level and what is the chilling hour requirement for this variety (please name the variety as well thank you
We are in Salem, Oregon (USA) so we are about 153 ft above sea level. The variety shown in the video is Jefferson. We have pretty mild temperatures here. The winter is typically 44 degrees F and rainy but we do dip below freezing some of the winter. I’m not sure how many chill days the trees need but they don’t like extreme heat or extreme temps below freezing.
I wouldn’t know an elevation requirement but it depends on your temperature and rainfall. Hazelnuts can live in freezing temps but they prefer a Mediterranean climate with mild temperatures and significant rainfall. ~70% of the world market of hazelnuts is grown in Turkey. Oregon in the USA (specifically Willamette valley) is also an ideal place to grow them because the winters are mild and normally the summers don’t get too hot. Temps above 85-90 deg F and below 15 deg F can cause stress on the trees. Not getting adequate water in June/July when the nuts are developing can also stress the trees. If your area has moderate temperatures and significant rainfall then they will do well.
We produce most all of the varieties of hazelnut trees that are grown in Oregon in the US: McDonald, Wepster, Polly-O, Yamhill, York, Jefferson, Theta, Felix and Eta.
Your videos are excellent. I hope you produce more
Thank you. If you have suggestions for new video content please let us know.
That was very helpful, hope to see more.

What elevation is required for Hazel nuts farming..? I have an elevation of 8700 feets is this elevation is good for the farming.. ?
