Once fully ripened, the hust around the pecan will have dried and opened so that the pecan inside is exposed. At this time, wind, rain, or some other external force causes some of the pecans to fall to the ground. Most will remain attached to the husk until the tree is shaken or a long pole is used to dislodge the pecans. Throwing sticks or rocks (not your spouse) up into the tree works as well .
