Potting Chestnuts | Live Free or Die: How to Homestead

[Music] Today I'm going to show you how to move these germinating Chestnut seeds to another location that's more conducive to growing them out to maturity. This is optimum size for planting. Once they get this big, they get to be kind of unruly. But, um, the only reason why I knew that these were starting to germinate was because of these little boogies starting to pop up out of the substrate.

So let's go ahead and toss it in a pot here, tap them in, give them a drink of water, and repeat. Once you got your Chestnut seedlings potted up in their pots, keep them in a warm spot until the threat of last frost has passed. We're keeping them on our rocket mass heater bench in our house, and, uh, that'll give them plenty of heat, and they'll grow out pretty well.

Adequate sunlight comes in here to keep them going. Somewhere maybe middle or late May, we'll go ahead and put them outside in the ground. They should be, uh, they should be good to go. They should be able to take care of themselves after that.

Yeah, go ahead and plant a chestnut forest, and, uh, people will be reaping the benefits for generations to come.
