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?

I always thought a "pee-can" was what you used when you didn't want to walk out back at night. 0 -

+1 A pee-can is what you keep under your bed in case you have to go at night and it is 0 degrees outside. Not everyone has indoor plumbing.[:D][:D][:D][:D]
I thought that was a "slop jar" [:D]

In the area of the real South that is famous for pecans (Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia) they are known as pe-kahns.
Movies made in Hollywood have Yankee actors incorrectly asking "for another piece of that bodacious peekin' pie"
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. Don
hey Donnell. You farm 3000 acres of mature PEE can trees? holy smokes chief that is something to think about. You do the black cow thing too don't you?
Is there a preferred method of "at home shelling"?0 -

We had to get rid of the cows because of a new policy of not keeping cattle in the groves between May and December. Shellers are getting afraid of a e-coli scare. No preferred method of home shelling unless you get the wife to do it. Don0 -
our current method is to take them to the old folks home...for some reason they love to shell PEEcans. 0 -
