:stupid: Well gents,
While visiting my Grandmother at the family farm today we got to discussing the idea of my taking some of the dead trees down for firewood. My Grandfather(gone to the back 40 in he sky) had a knack for Black Walnut. EVERY nut the squirrels would bury and sprouted he'd leave it grow. Now there are ALOT of Walnut trees and Grandma told me I could cut any and all of them if I wish. (Bless her!!!!!!!!) Some of these trees are 3ft in diameter and 50+ft tall......Im drooling at the possibilities!!!
My question is should I cut them down now? Should I wait a little while longer so the water will all be back in the roots? Im SUCH a rookie at this that I feel stupid asking such questions :stupid:
Thanks alot
Dave
