PISTACHIOS SHOULD BE GROWN BY THE ELDERLY

What else takes about 7 years for the grower to harvest his first nut (this guy is nuts) and 10 years to be able to start paying some bills? Just think, if a person wants something to look forward to, why not a pistachio? Yes, there are other options out there, like wine grapes, which take as few as 3 years to come into production. And if you drink enough of your own raising your liver will probably succumb from having too much fun, taking you with him. Or you could raise oranges; now what could be better than that? Why, you would never be deficient in vitamin C. But are you ready to get out of bed at midnight on the coldest nights of the year to start your wind machine or sprinklers to keep your beautiful oranges from freezing? I’m not. So for me it’s pistachios. I get more years to look forward to my first nut to go with the two I’ve already got. Just think: when I’m 90 I’ll be able to start paying the bank back. Now many of you at this moment are thinking, this guy is missing a few bricks out of the load. Well, it’s too late to try to reason with me as the trees are coming and I have to get ready.

See Ya,

Jack
