I have over a hundred oak trees in the woods that surround most of our farm, and I want to propagate these (by seed) in order to start to establish more oaks closer to the house.
I have collected a bag of acorns from the woods, and they are waiting to be sown.
So, I have two questions:
1) What is the best method for germinating acorn seeds?
2) Nomenclature of oak... these are native oaks that grow wild all over the place. They are tall and massive, as you would expect a hundred-year oak to be. It's your basic, standard oak tree. Is this enough information for anyone to give me the botanical name of this tree? Are there several species of oak, and, if yes, which is most likely to be the standard oak here in Tennessee?
Thanks for any info you may have!
Dave
