Last year the nutmeats were a little shriveled and may have been a tad sweeter. This year, though, totally black, totally dried out, totally inedible. The water table is not that far down. My well is only 10' deep so I'd think the big, old tree could get water.

In a very warm dry summer we would get some shriveled nuts, but I remember thinking that the nut meats tasted a little sweeter when just slightly shriveled…  just a thought.


I have observed the same thing.
