Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large, North American trees known as pecans (Carya illinoinensis) shed their leaves in the fall. They are members of the same family as walnuts and hickories-Juglandaceae. The nuts of the pecan tree, which are both tasty and nutritious, are the tree's primary source of economic value. Pecan trees are briefly described below. - Appearance-wise, pecan trees are remarkable for their height, which can range from 21 to 30 meters or 70 to 100 feet. The width of its canopy is between 40 and 70 feet (12 and 21 meters). The bark turns a silvery brown over time and cracks deeply. The lance-shaped leaflets that make up a pecan leaf's compound structure normally number between nine and seventeen. - Originating in the center and southern United States, particularly the Mississippi River Valley, pecan trees are now widely planted across the country. Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Georgia, and Mississippi are just few of the states where you might see them. Pecan trees have been grown in several regions of the world that have a climate that is conducive to their development. - The production of nuts is the primary economic incentive for growing pecan trees. Pecans are incredibly healthy and delicious, with a buttery flavor that stands out. A firm, smooth shell protects the nut's delicious center. Optimal nut quality and yield can be maintained by grafting or budding pecan trees with specific varieties. Nut production normally begins between the seventh and tenth year, with a peak between the twenty-third and thirty-first year. - Pecans can be found in a wide variety of cultivars, each with its own distinct size, shape, flavor, and shell thickness. Stuart, Desirable, Pawnee, Elliott, and Choctaw are just a few of the widely-grown varieties. It's vital to select cultivars well-suited to your climate, as they may have various needs in terms of chill hours (the number of hours below a given temperature) and heat tolerance. - Pecan trees thrive in rich, well-drained soil that receives full sunlight. They are commonly planted in large gardens for either their fruit or their shade. In order to maximize nut yield, pecan trees should be watered regularly, especially during dry spells. Pruning is essential for a number of structural reasons, including the removal of dead wood and the promotion of air flow. Pest control techniques are essential for protecting pecan trees from pests and diseases such pecan scab, aphids, weevils, and pecan phylloxera. - The economic worth of pecan nuts is great because of its popularity and demand. The United States is the world's greatest producer of pecans, with the states of Texas and Georgia being the most productive. Pecans have a broad variety of uses in the kitchen, from baking to garnishing to savory snacking. In addition to these benefits, trees also improve landscapes and increase ecological variety. The nuts from pecan trees are delicious, but that's not the only reason people value them. If you're a farmer, a home gardener, or just someone who appreciates the natural beauty of trees, you might want to consider planting some pecan trees.

Download or read book This Will All Be Over Soon written by Cecily Strong and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-08-09 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful memoir from the Saturday Night Live cast member Cecily Strong about grieving the death of her cousin—and embracing the life-affirming lessons he taught her—amid the coronavirus pandemic. Cecily Strong had a special bond with her cousin Owen. And so she was devastated when, in early 2020, he passed away at age thirty from the brain cancer glioblastoma. Before Strong could attempt to process her grief, another tragedy struck: the coronavirus pandemic. Following a few harrowing weeks in the virus epicenter of New York City, Strong relocated to an isolated house in the woods upstate. Here, trying to make sense of Owen’s death and the upended world, she spent much of the ensuing months writing. The result is This Will All Be Over Soon—a raw, unflinching memoir about loss, love, laughter, and hope. Befitting the time-warped year of 2020, the diary-like approach deftly weaves together the present and the past. Strong chronicles the challenges of beginning a relationship during the pandemic and the fear when her new boyfriend contracts COVID. She describes the pain of losing her friend and longtime Saturday Night Live staff member Hal Willner to the virus. She reflects on formative events from her life, including how her high school expulsion led to her pursuing a career in theater and, years later, landing at SNL. Yet the heart of the book is Owen. Strong offers a poignant account of her cousin’s life, both before and after his diagnosis. Inspired by his unshakable positivity and the valuable lessons he taught her, she has written a book that—as indicated by its title—serves as a moving reminder: whatever challenges life might throw one’s way, they will be over soon. And so will life. So make sure to appreciate every day and don’t take a second of it for granted.
