This is three years late, but I just found this channel I'm only here to say thanks for the link to your Oak ID page It's awesome I've been checking out such pages for a month or two now and it is by far the most useful page I've seen yet The biologists who are posting similar info should take a peek at it It's very will thought out and makes sense Congratulation on having done an excellent job

My property has three varieties of oaks White, Red, and Blackjack I have planted Sawtooth oaks though and they are up to 20 feet tall while others are much shorter I planted them 2014I also have two younger chinkapin trees Only makes a couple set of nuts a year
Comment from : @frankenz66

Is it true that with some species of oak tree you can't use as smoking wood because you can poison yourself?or is it a fallacy?
Comment from : @voodoo0202ify

Great thorough explanation,very helpfulthank you
Comment from : @edwardshaver868

Wow thanks I was told burr oak acorns were NOT liked bt deer too bitter?…saw em in tx…gigantic acorns!…im lucky enough to get to see many different types in my swamp on pearl river at ratliff ferry at lowerhead dam…which is pretty much central Mississippi northeast of ross barnett reservoir we planted over 50 sawtooth 20 yrs ago…which were around 6’ at planting…overcupp is common for us as well swamp chestnut …but logging is wiping us out of swamp chestnut…sickening…amazing acorns come from em…we have many reds and whites too…im still looking for some natural occurring shumard and nuttall…oak treea are amazing but very inconsistent for deer food…im finding hard way…i wish you would come visit at our club it would be a treat to get good school on oaks you seem very knowledgeable on trees period!…lotsa talkers lotsa incorrect rumors on this subject…oh yea!…i got to see some different chesnut oaks in the smokies around townsend area…longer acorns but still huge!…thanks again

This is a huge help
Comment from : @slimquinn5692

Red oak leaves are pointed like the indians arrows and white oak leaves are rounded like the white mens bullets
Comment from : @tommymiller3445

They should outlaw laurel oaks!! They rot from the inside out and one day the tree will fall apart!! Florida has too many of them and tree trimmers keep busy cutting down 1,000's of them each yr!
Comment from : @joesmith7427

Your video is PACKED with information, well illustrated, and well edited You did a fantastic job and your information about the difference in shape of sun leaves vs shade leaves on the same tree, answered a question that I actually had today Very, very impressive

Comment from : @whiskeyguzzlerpaso

Comment from : @saltrock9642

What about Shingle Oak (Quercus imbricaria)?
Comment from : @Joshua_Henderson

Hi friend I have oak tree be acorn from pakistan
Comment from : @rasheedkhan8863

I am also wondering if your knowledge extends to oaks from the western US I will check your videos I guess to see
Comment from : @careyjohnston4176

Do you know if the same species of oaks can pollinate one another like say two different white oaks cross-pollinate Just think it would be interesting to know Hybridization of plants for the nursery trade is extensive but have not heard or seen the practice of cross-pollination of oak trees
Comment from : @careyjohnston4176

Very well done, thank you
Comment from : @ronadkins1817

That's the first I've heard of sun leaves and shade leaves That explains why there's such variation of leaves on the same tree Thank you!
Comment from : @Wfc2736

Great, thanks a lot for your excellent information, I didn't know about such kinds of oak before, I am a cooper and I usually use american white oak for my barrels, I have two questions br1- why red oak is not used for making barrel?br2- which kinds of white oak in your description is used mostly in making barrel?brIs it possible for you to show a cutting slice of each oak in your channel?
Comment from : @miladfathi6562

I put 2 acorns in for germination with my children (one for each) I hope they grow as tall as those trees in the background! What a beautiful tree
Comment from : @fatherera

Interesting Had a big buck on a ridge between two well-worn trails and a 1100ft cliff Only draw I could see was a productive Bur-Oak

Thanks 🍁
Comment from : @raymondkoehler9299

Thank you! We’ve got what seems thousands of white acorns dropping in our neck of the woods right now I actually came to see why some our dropping different colors from light green to almost a shiny black The dogs love acorns but they leave the black ones which I’m assuming are overripe and they leave the light green - green ones, underripe I wish the deer herd was larger again, much easier to clean up the acorns 😂

Comment from : @fpczyz

Thank u for this video and the pictures and specific details of the leaves I was trying to figure out what tree I was looking at in my wooded area and some of the video I searched for just did not give enough information to compare And I had no idea why the leaves were not the same brWill be keeping this for future references Thanks😊

Comment from : @MrDanrn999

Terrific video I am a 63 YO gay man who grew up on a Virginia farm but there is so much I never learned regarding tree identification Our farm was almost 100 self-sufficient when I was very young (ie, we grew all manner of food in garden and fields, and also hunted, fished, and had livestock to provide the rest) If we didn't grow it or raise it, we didn't eat it (we were poor) My father was a prolific hunter Before he died he intimated that adults in the family suspected that at an early age (long before puberty) I was "funny," which meant gay in those days because I loved to go hunting and I was an excellent shot; however, I didn't like shooting animals I also got upset when we butchered cows and pigs (which were like pets to me) Anyway, my father didn't impart a great deal of tree specific info to me, so I know only the basics (and my college degrees are in mathematics and computers) So your video taught me so much and I very much appreciate it You even showed me a couple oaks I have never seen here in VA

I’d love a pdf of your tree identification site

What about live oaks?
Comment from : @Beeontree

Lots of very good information, thank you very much this was really helpful
Comment from : @markcarey5673

Loved your video! We have an oak in S Texas (Hill Country) that is very popular with bow hunters They line the sides of hills and are relatively small trees They drop acorns early, usually Sept-Oct and they are the most colorful trees during fall, going from solid green to yellow, orange and red Bow hunters love them as they attract deer Just wondering if anyone knows the name of this oak? The only other oak in hill country drops acorns later in the season It has a small leaf usually about the size of the first joint of your thumb The leaf is oval in shape and has a sharp point on it I want to plant the first variety but can’t remember which ones they are Can anyone help?

Are you aware that you are a druid or did you just stumble in it?
Comment from : @hermeticdruid

In Georgia on John’s Mtn WMA there are a lot of chestnut oaks and I have observed deer eat them like popcorn
Comment from : @Paul-i2s

your acorn identification page is great this would be a great course guide for biology/ecology/ag college students the logic and layout are well done
Comment from : @thedirtguy3553

This is one of the best ID videos out there Thanks for including photos of the bark, tree shape and leaf shapes as well as growing ranges You pack so much useful information in this video Keep making videos! You’re very good at it, and it helps probably millions of people
Comment from : @gamingwithfrodo

No Scarlet oak?!
Comment from : @HillbillyRednecking

Outstanding detailed overview! brThank you from Virginia Beach; I'm subscribingbrThanks also for mentioning Sawtooth Oak - I spent several frustrating hours of my life in 2022 trying to identify one! Sawtooth acorns are notably bitter, leading to more seeding trees Sawtooth's fast growth also leads to storm breakage a hazard during hurricane season
Comment from : @jeffjones6951

Almost skipped this video, but I'm glad I didn't This was one of the best videos on this topics I have seen You should reach out to your local extension because this would be a great seminar

I am in Houston Tx and I didn't see Live Oaks which id very prominent here
Comment from : @lisaawild

Great job my friend I’ve got a bachelor science degree in civil engineering, environmental science, and forestry Way that you articulated yourself in this video definitely is worthy of greater education You look young enough that you have the time to do it I implore you to go get more education and get the credentials to be a professional forester

Currently attempting to bonsai a red oak tree from an acorn I found under my husbands favorite stand It germinated and rooted so well Now I’m going to btry/b to bonsai it so he can have a piece of that spot forever
Comment from : @kaylagordon6776

Who would have thought a Black Oak is in the Red Oak Group! Stoked to hunt the Post Oaks as now I know they are in the yummy White Oak Group

I homeschool in Ohio and, thanks to your video, my 8-year-old son and I identified our acorns as coming from a White Oak tree We learned so much!
Comment from : @UnschoolingIt-ish

My 5 year old son is OBSESSED with trees And as a teacher, this was amazing! We live in the woods and although I know a little about oaks, this was easy to understand and so informative! We both learned so much! Thank you! 😊
