I’m getting a bigger + pto driven sprayer. Boom or boomless and why one over the other?

^Thanks very much for the additional insight sir. I have 2 tractors; a 65hp and a 120hp. Big tractor will definitely handle the HD; little tractor is right on the edge and I certainly appreciate points about the additional load stress. Having a unit both tractors will handle increases...

Go on…because?

Genesis offers two 8' drills; one weighing 2625lb and the HD model weighing 3803lb. I'm assuming primary determining factors like tractor size/hp, soil type, downforce needed for residue are key considerations but can anyone offer insight about which model might be preferred?

When I don’t get aglime in a spreader I get barnlime. $1 cheaper per 50# is real savings.

Just know older vines can scar and choke younger timber…it can wrap around stems like an anaconda. And Treedaddy is right…EVERYTHING eats a muscadine or scuppernong.

Plant em every year with either sunflowers or sorghum...acts as a sort of trellis.

25-06 is absolute deer poison. Got 2: a Remington 700 Sendero with a bull barrel for beanfields and 700 stainless SPS for in the timber as it’s super light and maneuverable. I also have Sendero in 7mag so understand that comparison well.

Pop up showers the last 3 days. Chants everywhere.

Saute (almost stir fry) with the tiniest bit of olive oil or butter and a little salt over med-hi heat really let's the earthy flavor and texture come thru...just sorta let'em sweat down. And make sure you get a good id for chants growing out of wood vs dirt. Jack o lanterns can look a whole...

Chant primetime the next few weeks so long as the timely rains continue.

Not sure what states ya'll are in but in the south/midsouth it's so dang thick virtually every edge is pretty much naturally feathered if mowed periodically. I've done it mechanically and it's great to clean up field edges but within a year or 3 it's right back like it was. For me, just mowing...

Check that. 2 pitches, State up 5-4 in the 8th. Bornagain, make sure to kill what’s there and try to knock any seedbank back. They’ll flat choke out your crop when it’s young.

Right at the moment ain’t looking too good for the home team.

No fertilizer at all for me, just lime in a few places on occasion. Turnip, radish, and collard will grow just about anywhere on my farm so long as competition doesn't become an issue.

That’s how we secure out shooting houses too…wired to t posts. They‘ve withstood winds that took down trees. Nice work!

Is this a trick question? See avatar…for timber or agricultural producers beavers are the bane of our existence. If they’re not eating the profits they’re flooding fields or messing up water control structures. In my situation there's just no negotiating, some agreement to "just build here...

If you’re trying to improve habitat or grow timber, kill’em. Eventually a closed canopy will rid a timber stand of sourwood but in the meantime they’ll compete with your younger keepers.

^ This. It’s just under 2mi from where I store equipment to my furthest, and biggest plot. To go back and forth picking up implements, time, fuel...even if a combo unit like this is slower it’s still less time than than running back and forth.
