Just talked to a couple of clients in Humphreys and they all say the same thing, very few acorns in the trees or on the ground.

Called my Wife. Our huge white oak in Cordova is dropping acorns like mad and they are not small. We have sprinklers on a timer so water was never an issue.
Last year one hit the roof bounced off and clunked me on the head, broke the skin. I must admit, I jumped a few feet.

I'm seeing the same thing at my farm in Humphreys.

I'm in Houston, right next door to Humphries for those who don't know, and my yard is absolutely covered with white oak acorns. I mowed the grass today and could not believe the acorns on the ground. I've seen this many before but never this early, normally when bow opens there will be a couple starting to drop but never anything like this.

Never ceases to amaze me how different acorn production can be across very short geographic distances.
