acorns still viable after storage for 10 months in refrigeration
acorns still viable after storage for 10 months in refrigeration. These are white oak, and I ship them worldwide in an envelope. At this point I’m just selecting the sprouty ones, any that haven’t produced a small radical by now probably aren’t viable, acorns are recalcitrant meaning you can’t dry them and they only store for a limited time.
