I moved to NC almost a year ago, i was just told I have four pecan trees yesterday, they were everywhere I didnt realize they were pecans till someone pointed it out. since yesterday Ive picked up about 8 pounds of nuts by hand. There is a ton of over grown weeds I will cut back to get access to a better harvest next year. SOOO very excited!! Pecan
Thank you so much for sharing the beautiful piece of land that you tend, I'm in Southern California and I just put in two pecan trees, Western Schely (25 ft) and a Wichita (10 ft), the Western is flowering now, and hoping to get some pecans this year. You've given me the confidence on how to harvest!
Here in South Alabama, we call them Pacans for Pecan! I was always told that a Peecan was what a truck driver uses!!! Lol hope this helps if understood. Thanks for the video. I also use a Bag-a-Nut like yours for 26 trees we have. Love it other than cleaning the trash! Ha,ha but it was well worth the cost. It pays for itself if you don't mind working a little. They are around $550.00 now. Thanks again
Awesome! I wish I had a few more trees. The harvester does a good job it’s well worth the money. I think I could handle 12-15 trees. Your right, picking them out is the hardest part.
This is great. Thanks for the tour. I have recently developed a pecan addiction, but I live too far north to grow proper trees. I have to settle for getting them shipped up here from Georgia so I can crack them.
Hi, my dad started farming with pecans 9 years ago in South Africa. He's probably got about 4000 trees in the orchards, but will have to take out some as the trees get bigger. I want to get involved in the farm (good excuse to leave my office job😀), so watching any video about pecans that I can. Always interesting to see the innovate ways of the pecan farmers around the world!
I was born in Georgia and grew up with saying pecan like peeing in a can lol ha 😆Then after moving away for many years I noticed I would say P con. I recently moved back to Georgia I say both . So 🍅 or tomato or 🥔 or po- tah-to 😂
New to this area, we say “puh-conns”. Several trees on the property, thank you for sharing. Found that picker online and Walmart. Will be enjoying some nuts this fall. Blessings!
Oklahoma Northern central. Near the Arkansas river. We have native trees not perducing very well but better is to come. You have a neet place. So keep picking and have a good day.
We have 7, 30 year old pecans and lots of younger ones here in mid Missouri. Kanza, Kiowa, Peroque, Posey, natives, and Tracey (Lucas x creek) Nothing as big as what you grow. We haven't yet bought a bag a nut, but it looks pretty useful. I like to go around the tree with the lawn mower and nearly scalp the ground and blow all the trash away when it gets near harvest time. How do you sort through all your tarped piles?
My gramma from Georgia had a puh-can tree that my cousins would gather into a flour sack. The sack would then be tied and sewn tightly and sent by USPS to my family living in Florida. It was such a treat to shell the pecans and share some with the squirrels. Every year. Life in the 50-60s. ❤
SC. Our pecan crop is pretty good this year. It seems to be about every 3 years for a good crop. We say 'pee can'. I saw that same roller in the farm store. I might get one. Thanks for the demo.
Thanks for watching!! Yes this years crop is really good. I’ve gotten lucky and made some pretty consistent pecan crops. The harvester is well worth the money
I lived in Florence for about seven years. We had two huge pecan trees in our front yard. I never really ate pecans until I moved south. Then, that first fall ! Wow, fresh pecans are simply delicious. We would fill 5 gallon buckets from those trees and take them to family and friends in WV. I miss those trees, as we have moved away long ago. They were so majestic too.
I have a couple of small pecan trees. The largest pecan tree is 6 years old and a Cherokee variety and I also have a couple of Western Schley varieties. I don't have the necessary land area to grow more than 1 pecan tree and so will probably prune back the Western Schley tree. Currently there are a couple of dozen small nutlets just forming on the Cherokee tree. They won't be ready until April or May next year. The Cherokee pecan produced 4 nuts last year and not having tried fresh pecans very often they were great. I live in Perth, Australia and have 2 macadamia nut trees and they produce good nuts, especially roasted, but I do prefer fresh pecans. Because where I live the rainfall isn't great, but I do have a small water tank 2800 Litres, so I have to water the tree particularly during the summer months. I just hope the nuts don't prematurely fall from the tree. I noticed you have a Stuart pecan tree, that is a type 2 protogynous variety, I'm guessing you still get thousands of nuts from your trees. I noticed a pecan grower in Missouri grows seedling pecans and he says they are a better flavour than paper shell improved varieties. Do you notice if the flavour is better with your smaller seedling pecans. A couple of years ago I visited a small farm pecan grower in South Australia and he let me try a Wichita variety pecan. I don't know if it was stale, but it wasn't good. This guy actually won an award one year from the Australian pecan growers association for his Wichita variety. Normally the Wichita, type 2 is a protogynous variety and a pollinator for the Western Schley. I don't know if you will reply, but I'm impressed with your 100 year old pecan trees. where I live birds can be a real problem cleaning out nut trees, with the Australian raven (similar to a crow) going for the nuts.
Yes! The smaller pecans taste much better. I have a problem with black crows eating pecans but We are to kill them once crow season comes in mid November. Good luck with your trees! I estimate I harvest 300-350lbs per tree on a good crop like this year. My trees were planted in 1910.
@@oldriversfarm1609 you can kill crows in most states out of season if they’re destroying your crop. We can’t even hunt crows in Texas unless they’re damaging crops. I’d contact your local Game Wardens. I’d go out of business if I couldn’t fight off the crows. They’re horrible here. I walk my orchard every morning to let them know I’m around and they fear me. I own a 97 pecan tree orchard plus other fruit trees. Stuart and Mount are my 2 worst varieties. I don’t even gather those 2. My 2 Stuart’s where supposed to be Desirables and they were mislabeled. I knew not to buy Stuart’s. Out of the 3 Desirables I bought 1 was a Desirable. I had the leading pecan breeder who breeds most of the current varieties in College Station Tx. identify them. He said I got screwed because they were Stuart’s. He doesn’t like Stuart’s either. I have over 20 varieties.
I LOVE pecan PIE LOL. New SUBSCRIBER, & I smashed the thumbs up👍. Just showing a fellow UA-camr some LOVE. Cheers 🍻from Prairie Sunset Ranch☀️ & see you again soon.
Helpful video, thank you. Where are you located if you don't mind me asking. We are Merriwether County GA. You mentioned taking them into town. We say "Pea-can". We got a big pecan tree and 3 black Walnut tree. Watching as many videos as I can to learn about best ways to harvest. Do you think the nut picker upper will pick up our black walnuts too?
I have a small yard but there are 9 black walnut trees here. They dont bear regularly but always a few nuts on each tree but every few years when mother nature determines they are loaded. If one hits you on the head you know it,.. They are one sob to crack nearly impossible to get a whole nut but can get halves sometimes and quarters often. I really love the stately trees and always put up a bucket full for winter use. Squirrels will take over your property when the nuts fall in fact they will harvest them and then gather them, its amazing
Stuck up here in southern New England; we (my family) like to say pee-CAN, not pee-CAHN. Wish it was as warm up here as it is where you are on November 3rd!🙄
I wish I could, it would definitely improve yield. I don’t have a air blast sprayer. My trees get scab regularly. The only thing i do is trim limbs yearly and fertilize with granular fertilizer. I believe it has zinc in it
@@oldriversfarm1609 Telling you I appreciate your experience, isn't enough. I just bought a property in middle Georgia, with 8 pecan trees. Thanks to you, they will receive good stewardship.
how well does the picker work in high grass? i got 2 trees that are about 85 years old in SE pennsylvania, smaller nuts, they might be a hican variety to be cold hardy
My Hican tree produces Hicans that are twice as big as English walnuts. It looks like 2 English walnuts stacked on top of each other. People are amazed when I show them. I have 97 pecan trees and my Hican tree is the prettiest tree I have. Bigger leaves, darker green leaves, thicker canopy and the twigs are much thicker. The nuts are useless. They don’t fill out. I live in hot dry Texas and in sand and rock. Horrible conditions for pecans. If it was planted along a creek it would probably fill the nuts much better.
I’m new to owning pecan trees. My pecan trees are not producing very much also they have a lot of cobwebs and some sort of pest. What is your recommendation for this? If you don’t mind sharing I’d appreciate it.
Sounds like webworms. I was told by the extension agent in south Georgia that if you poke holes in the web with a stick, their predators will go in and eat them. :-)
Why my pecan tree nuts do not have meat inside. The shell hangs on the tree when they fall still have the outer shell on them but empty. Thanks for helping me what to do .
You need to buy grafted trees adapted to your area. Makes a huge difference on the varieties for your area because some do better in dry areas because they’ll get scab disease if it’s too wet, others do better in wet climates and others that ripen before it freezes if your in the northern region. They won’t produce if your too far north. You need to research your states recommendations for varieties. I have 97 trees in Texas.
@@jamesbarron1202 Thank you for your comment, do you happen to know a good variety for AR that you can recommend...since you are not far from me. I can do my own research too but also good to have a recommendation from someone knowledgable like you. Thanks
@@mandiegarrett1706 you’d have to go with the early ripening varieties and also scab resistant varieties in your location so that’s going to cut down on your available choices.

Las Vegas - we have one tree and it’s young. I think it’s only produced about 30 nuts this year.
That’s pretty cool! Didn’t know they would produce in Las Vegas!!
Hey there what state is your farm located in?
Georgia
How much do I charge for these nuts? I'm crackin 'em and putting them in 6 oz. zip lock bags.
I charge $2/lb in the shell, $3.50/lb cracked and $9.50/lb shelled
I wanted to add also that the smaller pecans have a better taste to me also because they have more oil in them!
100% agree. We keep a bunch of the smaller ones to eat thru out the year.
How many coconut tree is produced on average
Peacan and live in Alabama y’all have a pretty place

When do they start falling? Same time every year?
Yes. Late October first of November every year. Usually takes 2 weeks or so to fully drop

Insufficient pollination
Good information. Could possibly use some editing.
Do you need two trees to produce pecans
Pecans are pollinated by the wind. They recommend a type 1 to pollinate type 2 and vice versa. Within 150 feet of each other.
Good afternoon sir. I love this. I need some seeds where can I buy them? I'm very much interested in planting them.
Go buy some pecans.
