It's easier to let the squirrels plant the nuts, though they won't put
them in neat rows. I have walnuts and filberts coming up all over the
yard and also in small pots, all planted by absent-minded squirrels.
You could just leave a pile of nuts in one corner of the field, and
let them go to it.
More on topic: I bottle a lot of apricots and peaches each year and
dump the pits in the vegetable garden. I get germination from
peaches, though not a high % considering the number of seeds. I don't
get any apricots.
