We have a very large pecan crop this year. This is normal the second year following a hurricane. Fruit thinning is encouraged when 70% or more terminals have nuts. Right now, we have 90-100% terminals on most orchards and varieties. Trees cannot fill out this crop, and also this size crop can push our crop into alternation. We have a little bit of time left – maybe a week or week and a half – to fruit thin. Our current crop is about 10 days early right now.
