I think the resounding answer is......buy your "small" seeds from one of the better seed houses said above......and buy Rye, Oats, Wheat, corn and beans, and other large volume seeds from a local source to reduce shipping costs. Lots of good local sources for seeds.....if you do a little...

What is the "overdressed" you speak of? Can't say I ever overdressed in OZ.....oh maybe that time I wore long pants instead of shorts? (FORE!!)

I think I was knife buyer #1. As the Virginia Slim's adds used to say: "you've come a long way baby". Grin. Kudo's Mike.

I never have had a positive ID on the "grass" in my swamp here. I've been calling it grass.....but I truthfully do not know. EDIT: Just did a google search to help ID what I got here....and had forgotten this saying: “Sedges have edges, rushes are round, grasses have nodes from the top...

With rooted willows like this.....dont you have an issue with the roots folding when planted? I could do this same idea in other places.....only do not know if I dare take my tractor into the swamp. Risky.

I gotta wonder if I wont "get by" with planting those cuttings just an inch or two higher than where the sand meets the swamp grass. If they grow as fast as said......I get a free head start this year on weed free area to plant. Maybe hit the edge with glyphosate prior to planting too...

Looks like a good source and price ($1.10 each)....but they pretty short at 12". Is that enough? I think I can plant them at the waterline.....so I suppose it is enough. (I answered my own question. grin). Tubes required? I may tube those nearest the shoreline and leave them...

Treason? Military Coup? Organized plan for civil war? New Impeachment groundwork? Prosecute these idiots!

^ Thanks for all the inputs here guys. Good info. Considering all. Gotta say, I am looking for cheap and easy......and even at easy.....I don't have much juice to put into this project. Seems each year I may lose 1/3 or more of my strength and ability. Strange how that happens...

That always surprised me too. I do have other nearby bog areas where tamaracks are thriving....but not in this bog. Not sure why that is. May be worth a try.

You have always been big time Kooch.

OK....you're getting a flag for unsportsmanlike conduct. That was uncalled for! (but true).

^ Thanks for this advice. Been concerned on what to do here. I have a sickle bar mower that could cut the grasses to about 4 or 5 feet from the road bank. Then could hit it with glyphosate and run that suggested weed mat along the same path.....and finally plant the cuttings into the...

If you have relatively flat land.....these are good. Mine has a front basket for a pack and a rifle scabbard. Seat is low enough to firmly plant both feet on the ground. I think I paid about $850 for mine a few years ago. Mine has a long seat cushion for a second rider.....but I would not...

I was so "all in" on McCarthy even bought a jersey. Just gonna leave this here.
