Subject: Harvesting pinecones

In Michigan, I harvest pinecones in the fall. They have ripened, are matured and drop readily off the trees. I'm not sure how they could be harvested easily in the spring in this region because they're still green and immature. Those that do drop could be harvested, but you would probably have to heat them a little to get them to open. My experience has been that the green ones are also full of pitch, so you have to clean that off first.

I'm not sure what the growth cycle is like in the south, so it may be possible to harvest the prior year's crop in the spring.
