    Long term income as in a payout for your grandkids?

    Aren’t these toxic to horses, most vegetables, pines, dogs, et al?

  3. Thatdewd57

    Aren’t they a pain in the ass to process?

    I have them on my property, just can’t stomach the nuts. Friends/family won‘t take them either.

    I wish for English walnut. Much easier to crack, better eating too.

    What makes it better than pecans? They’re easier to process and the wood is great for smoking meat.

  7. No.  We have a ton around our farm, and they are awful to try to garden around. They poison the soil around themselves and make growing a LOT of stuff, from blueberries and apples to tomatoes hard to impossible.

    They are specifically terrible near gardens though.

    Well I was completely distracted by the wonderful accent of the narrator. Luckily I already knew about black walnut trees so I could just listen to the accent like music.

    Buying black walnuts is wild, that shit is so incredibly easy to propagate, just pop a walnut in the ground and next year you have a sapling.

    They’re not recommended for my area. They’re too difficult to grow and are highly susceptible to Thousand Cankers disease. I wish I could grow them.

    It’s too humid too hot and the wrong soil in my location. This is not a good tree for the Panhandle of Florida.

    Good luck with your ankles. I cut three large black walnuts close to my house down because I got tired of twisted ankles

    Invasive where I am, so no thanks.

    Honey Locust would be a better fit for me.
