if you disk around the edges, it will help. you're stimulating new root growth and you put the tree in 'survival' mode. it will put out more acorns because you have tricked it into thinking it is in danger.


Similar to this...Ive trimmed oak back before and the next year it went nuts with acorn production.

If planting new trees, I'd plant pears. My dad and I planted two, 12 yrs ago and the last few years they have produced and the deer murder em.

Fertilize the oak trees in the spring for sweeter acorns in the fall.

The peer tree idea is good, we have planted those as well as peaches.
