💡 Care Tip:
Soak seeds in water for 1–4 days, changing water regularly. Cold stratify for 90–120 days at 40°F in a moist medium. Sow 1–2 inches deep after stratification. Pecan trees develop deep taproots, so plant in a permanent location early. Cross-pollination improves nut production and overall yield.
