So we just gonna ignore the demonic "I love you 👹" 😭

You know you need to grow this until it gets a few feet tall and you have to plant it somewhere good where you can appreciate it as you get older.
That is if you don't have some property by then then to plant it in your own yard.
When I was 20ish years old I grew a pine tree from seed by accident in my garden (My yard here in Southern California had 15 huge pine trees), when The "baby" pine tree got about 3 ft tall I carefully dug it out and I moved it to a local somewhat dried out creek bed where I thought it would get enough water to survive... That was 20 something years ago. Now when I drive by the street where I planted it I could see it starting to peak up over the little valley I put it in, If I had to guess it's now 25 ft tall I have it actually got out of my car and went down to it and looked at it but it has to be pretty tall if I can see it from the street because it was essentially in a hole in the ground lol. Pretty neat in my opinion.

Food grade Diatomaceous Earth is safe for pets, it won’t hurt the squirrels but it will deter them from eating in your garden, black pepper or peppermint works too

Oaks tend to have super long tap roots, so a good way to start them is with a tall pot! I work in conservation and we use 3’ pvc pipes, cut and capped on one side to make the pots

That dog trying to sniff the acorns is just so adorable 😂

👍 Wonderful video art. Nice and effective work you have brought up!

[DomDollx]

Lolol i was just abt to say your squirrels know the good stuff ...always eating them up!

[donnahampson]

I managed to germinate and planted two maple trees not realize how big they grow as well as a silver birch which is gorgeous also quite big but the birds love them 😍

The dog's snoots is so adorable HAHAHAHHA

[smvwees]

I love how tiny trees already have big leaves.
I once had by accident a tiny oak tree, not summer oak, the other variant, because i noticed big oak leaves laying round and wondered how they got there.

Is there a specific reason why you don’t put your pots in some sort of a mini garden house? I feel like almost every plant you try to grow it‘s getting eaten.

[tjshort]

Plant as many of those as you can. White tail love white oak

[dezb]

I have an oak tree too! It fell in a pot I had some soil in and it is teeny but still growing. The tap root grows down a few feet so I may transplant in a month or so but so far so good

[sarahguerrero]

Jessy, Jessy again?😂dont’t let the squarrel destroy your new plants, I am saving the avocado bag and turn it i to a net to cover the top of the planter and is working

[birdnird]

Squirrels plant the acorns for us and we get Live Oaks and Spanish Red Oaks in our potted plants. Sometimes bonus Pecan Trees and Peanut plants. When Peanut plants show up someone inevitably complains about it on Nextdoor. Then the squirrels eat our expensive succulents instead. Deer eat everything else

I was just waiting for the RAWR! At the end 😂

[HiroIndo]

I never seen jesse succeeded in growing anything or is it just me

If you picked them fresh and they’re still green. Throw them in a Ziploc bag. Leave them alone for a few days, the moisture this and then we’ll make it germinate. Keep it in a warm place. And I know this works because a friend of mine gave me nuts that her son collected for me for my tree farm. And I had them in big Ziploc bags in a brown garbage bag for about five days and when I looked at them to try them out, they had 3 inch roots growing on a lot of them, and I think I planted 250 of them that year.

You should get a good cat, mine loves to hangout with me in the backyard where all my fruits and vegetables grow and while we have plenty of squirrels, mice and raccoons I have almost no problem with them, sadly he’s turned 18 this year and age is starting to get to him but he still loves patrolling the backyard keeping it safe❤️
