I have 2 Italian Chestnut trees. We planted them about 15 years ago and every fall we have a wonderfully large crop of chestnuts, from both trees. However, we have to get out there to harvest the chestnuts that have fallen (which is when they are ripe and the green prickle outer shell splits and you can get to the brown shelled chestnuts), before the deer and squirrels get them!! In the beginning, the deer and squirrels didn’t bother with them too much. But since they have discovered how delicious chestnuts are, we have to race out there early every morning!!😂

I bought a couple to benefit the wildlife and me of course and I was thinking the same. How can I beat them to them. For the deer I have a portable electric fence but not sure if it will work for the squirrels. I just need to harvest my part and they can have the rest😂

There are lots of volunteer hazelnut/filbert trees on my property thanks to an orchard next door, but in the 21 years I’ve lived here I’ve yet to find one nut before the squirrels do!

My three chestnut trees are three years old. I'm not sure how widespread the branches are but I keep the deer away from the first share of the persimmons by placing a lean to post, shovel or other long tool, against the tree trunk. I , also, use old garden hose laid on the ground around veggies that the deer crave. I was told that the deer may think it is a snake to avoid. idk but it works. I put plenty of squirrel 'feed' around a few places and it saves much of my hazelnut harvest.

Since chestnut trees are not self-pollinating, there needs to be TWO OR MORE trees in close proximity to each other. Otherwise, the burrs will be empty except for some shriveled hulls. My first chestnut tree had this problem until a second one grew mature enough to pollinate it.
@checkyoursix5623 5 ай бұрын
Utility companies used to prefer them for utility poles. The trunks grew tall and straight, and they didn't have to give them a creosote bath before planting them in a hole - they were naturally rot-resistant. There are still some old "original" ones hiding in some parts of the country.

If they are anything like the edible variety that grows in the Uk (sweet chestnut) then the trunks make excellent timber,comparable to oak in strength and durability(tannins) but which grows faster and straighter and is almost white in colour. As far as the nuts go;if eating them raw then don't eat the fluff-it's really bitter. I can remember as a kid in London when people would roast and sell them on an old oil drum outside the underground stations In e.g. France you can buy tins of chestnut butter (like peanut butter but quite sweet) and creme de chataigner - a delicious liqueur made from chestnuts.Bon appetit :-)

In the UK the Sweet Chestnut is not indigenous but does produce small edible fruit. The Horse Chestnut is native and produces large fruit called a Conker, an instrument of adolescent warfare when place on a string. An interesting fact about UK Sweet Chestnuts in some areas there are a lot of trees about 200 years old. The reason is because during the 23 years of the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars it became clear the UK was getting short of suitable timber for it's ships and a planting process of oak was started. French POWs were given the task in some places and as an act of subversion they planted Sweet Chestnuts a native to them and reminder of home but not the oak that would be used against them.

American has smaller nuts than those seen in this video. A small tree from a nursery is about $30 for Chinese to over $50 for some varieties. Good luck getting an American cross-bred for blight resist. They aren't selling many seedlings and I haven't found fresh nuts. They may be restricting them to control the cross-breeding program. American has a slightly lighter color leaf with more pronounced points almost like White Oak that is very long/narrow with more points. Google to find comparison of American and Chinese. Every other Chestnut leaf that I have seen) is in between those shapes/colors.

Following the quip: "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is today!" I would say, the sooner the better! The freshness and quality may be a smidgen better if you wait til August or September, but if you have space to set some in the fridge for a month or 2, then can get them started in a sunny window or green house till the last frost of spring to plant them outside, you would be far ahead of the game and closer to getting a harvestable ROI for your work. I am of the thinking that time is of the essence, but do what works for your situation.
