I was curious about blue hill, I can never get an order in time

To add to my persimmon post I’d like to get some chestnut trees going on my farm. Checking to see what your reccomendation is for the go to chestnut variety? Who do you reccomend to order from? What varieties are best for Whitetail’s draw?

What has been the best persimmon purchase for deer draw? I’m going to move from pear and apple to persimmon in my next few purchases. Looking for best overall Whitetail’s draw and best nursery for overall quality. Are there any hidden gems that aren’t well known in persimmon types for deer?

I am gonna give it a try. Went with 2 Jehovah”s choice, 1 rut master, 1 steady Eddie, and one cAndy crab. They are expensive, hopefully they are solid. I’ll have them paired up against BH and Whitetail’s crab varieties in same plot. I’ll have a good 25 apple and 20 pear in this large plot...

I can get away with dropping handful of trees but no large scale tsi. The section where I have the yellow tsi circles is already moderately thick and dropping a few trees in strategic spots should encourage bedding close to the large food. The neighbor has ladder stands all over his place and...

See attached pics, inside blue is proposed bean/milo mix and approximately 3 acres with rye oat wheat broadcast in fall. I’ll likely run thick strips of sorghum to block sight lines in the beans. Green would be small less than quarter acre kill plot with blind setup for north base winds...

It’s hill country se Ohio. Currently it’s used for hay, it was sprayed in September for fall plots but didn’t seed due to no rain. No competition with in a mile or two as far as plotters. Property across road it nasty thicket and houses a couple studs. Trying to tsi this winter spring to bed...

what are your absolute go to trees in these categories for deer draw? Specifically breeds that you have purchased from online dealers or have stumbled across and grafted your own? I’m getting close to maxing out my space and want to finish my orchards with strong draw trees!!

Did you drill?

I’d be at the farm in early June for a couple weeks, when planting do you see any benefit to a late start date versus a may planting? That’s crazy height!!! Do they retain the pods well or is everything browsed off. I was asking in a previous convo what brand to run as I assumed real world would...

What company did u order the Milo from? I like the idea of a less dense Milo planting with the beans, maybe they can vine up the Milo….

Any go to bean type? I was thinking real world but would be open to suggestions having never planted them.

That’s kind of what I was thinking. The large field has a county road in view, I’ll have it screened but would also like to have the structure within to block road view.

I’m in SE Ohio, got pummeled by EHd. Moving forward I do have a couple survivor bucks that are really solid, one could be real special if he gets thru the gun. There’s a couple good 2.5 and 3.5 as well. I have one or two mature doe and 5-7 fawns based on my pics covering the 130 acres. I’d...

Has anyone bought from Jay Gingrich? Curious on how the trees look and are growing? I am looking to do an apple order and his apple trees would add to my crab dominated orchards. Curious if anyone can vouch for the quality due to his higher pricing.
