Any guesses as to whether or not pollinations on Aug 2, 4 and 6 will lead to viable nuts? We had frost in June and the second bloom was late. The upside is that a graft I placed this spring shed pollen and I used it for 4 burs Nut fall is about Oct 20th, here on PEI. These are dentata chestnuts.

Quick update. Nuts pollinated Aug 2 and 4 are now sending out roots. Nuts pollinated Aug 4 and 6 are still in the fridge, and I'll let you know when I take them out what happens. I have some tiny scions I might try and graft when the new shoot is ready, might be better than waiting till the end of May outside. Those tiny ones run out of gas sooner.
