Got to start somewhere!

So, I have become increasingly festinated by the American Chestnut over the past few years. I think if you go down the rabbit hole learning about them, you will too.

Anyways, after a few experiments of trying to grow them here in New Mexico, I have started my biggest experiment in them yet. I got a bunch of seeds from North Carolina and have had them in the fridge all winter. Now they are in their own little pots and have started to grow their own little tap roots!!!

The pots with the chestnuts in them. They are in the garage under grow lights. The garage part is just to keep them from freezing...

We will see... Like I said... this is just the start!
