Default Re: Buckeye or chestnut need help...

The nut is a glossy brown color and very smooth. The nuts are contained in a spiny hull until they ripen in September. The hull opens and they fall to the ground. Many times there are multiple nuts in a hull.

The nuts are slightly poisonous and shouldn't be eaten unless they are heated and leached
