my nuts are small
This year, the pecans ("pronounced PEE-cans" not "pe-KAHNS") are tiny in our yard.
Is this a result of the drought?

The size of the nut is determined by the amount of fluid received during the fill stage. If during this stage, things are dry, the nut will not fill and will mature as small. Sometimes, it will also be shriveled and not full. I hope this helps. Don 0 -

Its not the size that counts, Its how you use them.0 -
Mine are big, swollen, and blue!
I guess I need to start useing them again before they fall off![:(][:(][:(][:(]0 -

Sorry to bust your bubble, but, I live in the Pecan Capital of the World, Albany, Georgia. It is pronounced PEE-CAN. However, I pronounce it Pe-Caan. I farm over 3000 acres and this year harvested almost 3 million pounds. This has been a record year for everyone. Now, go out and buy some. Don0 -
Yep, buddy of mine Clanton had a great Pecan year too, even though it was dry, still is. 0 -
