The black bucket is a 7 gallon nursery planter. Two "sets" of the ladder filled the bucket to the level you see. The third "set" produced the scatter of apples on that you see on the ground. |

Sanitizing seed-nuts
Unfortunately, acorns and chestnuts are likely to be harboring various kinds of weevils. The protocol for sanitizing the nuts is to soak them in 120 degree F water for 20 or 30 minutes.
