Happy Thanksgiving everybody. I’m tired of googling and trying to find chestnut seeds to put into cold stratification. Last year I collected from a tree at a friends property, but this year there was alot of worm damage to the nuts. Does anybody have a lead where I can buy chestnuts to grow. I’m sure I can’t buy from a grocery store and try and grow. Does anybody have a website they use? Or can sell some to me. Hope everybody has a wonderful day!
My local grocery stores carry Italy imported chestnut. My local oriental grocery stores carry fresh Chinese chestnut. You just need to look for it. I bought small amount from each stores that sells chestnut. I use floating method to eliminate worm damaged, mold chestnuts . I stored good ones in a zip lock bag in fridge till spring. Most will sprout, but watch squirrels dig up the nut underground
