Hi folks,
I’ve been getting messages and requests on threads. I’ve lost track of what people I’m sending to whether scions or grafts.
Please help me here.
Dax
P.s. I have a HUGE amount of wood to collect for a friend and myself. Please limit to what you will need. And in your reply, please give me an exact amount and what size sticks.
I sent you a message. Thanks Dax!
Thanks for messaging. That’s what I was hoping folks would do after they replied here. I won’t be at my computer very much this weekend and . . . .
I’ll be in contact with everyone tomorrow evening or Monday evening. I’ve got a guest coming and I have to go look at a vehicle & I have/need to cut scions, tomorrow.
Thanks!
Dax
I have Jerry & Dana so far for scions & Mark I’m sending a graft to.
Waiting to hear quantity and size for Jerry & Dana.

Hi Dax
I have already answered and you answered me. Thanks for the prompt reply. Just a little note on a different track.
Next time you transplant a pecan,don"t just fill in the hole and forget it. Take a good sharp spade and cut the remaining roots in a concentric pattern. You can make your hole enlargement ten or so inches bigger than the hole left by the removal. A well sharpened square ended spade works well. You should harvest a dozen roots 1/2 inch or more diameter. Mark the distal (small end furthest from the center) with slanted cut
I put mine in a deep pot over bottom heat,. It will take a while but they should sprout after a bit.
I hope I have not confused too many ,I am not a good writer, about like my grafting

Jerry meant to send his last post as a message I learned.
Everything is well and good and I will be shipping scionwood today.

You’re most welcome, Jerry.
I’ll be bench grafting 300 deciduous in 3-4 weeks. I have 200 pecan seedlings; 50 of pawpaw and 50 of persimmon. Gary and I usually fool around grafting together. He brings over his grafting tool and I use mine. Sometimes it gets real wild and we take out our knives
Have a great day, tomorrow. Real glad you’re happy.

Do you have any scions available this year? possibly mahan and a good mahan pollinator?
We don’t grow ‘Mahan’ here. I’m not even familiar with it.
I sent Scott an order form for Kansas State University’s pecan program offering scionwood. He posted it to the Resources page:
Order Form
At .50cents a scion, you can’t beat that. No minimum just a maximum of 50 scions + really cheap shipping. Hope this helps! Call ahead before you send an order in is my opinion.
