    Sugar beet Plot 2018

    Where can you find the RR sugar beet seed? I deal with co-ops and farm stores throughout the mid-Atlantic and no one has been able to find seed for me.

    Venison burgers

    I just use venison, nothing else, some salt and pepper of course. The trick is to have the grill at the correct heat so that you only flip once. They can hold together.

    That dye is a great idea. I'll give them a call. Thanks for the help!

    Common Mullein in Clover Plot

    Right now they are just rosettes, but each one is about 18" diameter. I don't let them grow tall. They just take up about 10% of 3 access or so of plot it seems like. I do spray in summer with clethodim and butyrac 200, and it works great. But these seemed to persist through that. Too many for...

    Common Mullein in Clover Plot

    Does anyone know of a spray that will kill common mullein and not kill clover? I have areas of my clover plots that are close to 20% common mullein. All the herbicides I've looked into will kill the clover. Is there a solution other than spot spraying glyphosate? Even trying that, I'm afraid the...

I got my stove off Craigslist for $200 and replaced some broken firebrick in it. I wouldn't be concerned about someone stealing the stove or pipe...

    Antler drop in your area?

    I'm in central VA. Mostly they seem to drop in February. Some drop mid January and some mid March even, but first 10 days of February seem to be when most lose them here.

    How does a deer survive this?

    Looks like a high hit above the spine; "no man's land". Looking at a live deer, the hair, hide, and meat above the vertebrae is several inches minimum. A shot through that material even at a steep angle can be superficial. Keep in mind that the center of what you see looking down at a deer is...

    clover for logging trail

    I've got a similar trail about 20' wide and then daylighted to get a little more sun. It's in a middle aged hardwood stand so there is more shade than what is ideal. Durana clover has done extremely well for me. The first fall I did the rye nurse crop with clover, then just mowed a couple...

    Good trail camera?

    How much battery is left affects how good my flash works on my Stealth Cam G30 and Browning Dark Ops. I also miss night pictures due to low battery, but I'll get day pics for several weeks. This is with cheap Amazon batteries.
