looks good. Do the salted ones rust out your equipment faster?

Heck with peanuts, where's the PECANS? They are getting real hard to find and pricey.

Neighbors picked our place yesterday, left around 10 acres to still get. Yield is pretty good, moisture 11, should grade good. Think it could have used a week more in the ground, but, do what you have to. What county are you out of, I'm over in Worth.

You might be out of luck on the pecans this year. I know I will not have any. The storm knocked every pecan I had off the tree.

Nice pictures and a good harvest. My late brother-in-law should have planted peanuts on his 55 acres that he bought in western GA back in the 1960's. He bought that when he heard they were going to build that Interstate from Birmingham to Atlanta. It missed his place by a mile or so.
My wife's sister sold it a few years ago now she's kicking herself for selling it since she's tired of the hurricanes in Florida. Hal

What's the process here? They grow underground don't they? I assume they must be pulled or dug and left to dry. For how long?
