re: Oak trees and acorns

Just wondering, but wouldnt the amount of acorns put off have to do with the amount of water that the tree gets during the year?

i always thought this too but was proved somewhat wrong this year. we had one of the best acorn crops i have ever seen this year and that came after a very dry winter and summer. however, two winters ago we had more water on our lease than i've seen and since acorn trees produce every other year, the amount of water they received two years ago could have had alot to do with it.
