Putting in about 11 acres of brassica tomorrow and curious if people see a size difference in the bulbs/plants between when they break up the soil with a disk//tiller, and just laying it on the surface of a sprayed field that has plenty of seed to soil contact?

Hoping to get some information/experiences with 3 point hitch style tree planters. I do a LOT of tree planting with dibble bars for small trees and a 1 man earth auger for larger ones. Last year was the first year I was hired to help on a project with a tree planter. The field was recently...

Wrapping up with a little bit of doe hunting with my daughter this week, but probably done buck hunting for 2020. I was able to fill one of my MI buck tags on a nice 3.5 yr old that we had lots of pictures of on Nov 14th (night before gun opener) Grunted him in from a couple hundred yards. Very...

Anyone drilled a WSG mix in the fall? Due to the soft ground in the spring and only a bigger tractor at our disposal, can we drill a mix of Big blue, little blue and Indian grass in the fall ?? I usually do it in May, but would love to knock it out this fall if possible. Any experience would...

I have a stand of Japanese knotweed/bamboo whatever you want to call it. It is dormant right now but would like to check it off my list. Can I basal spray this? Or does it die back, and resprout from the roots ? Never really paid attention to it's life cycle. Thanks

I always use 3:1 garlon 4 and diesel fuel for basal spraying buckthorn and autumn olive. Is glyphoste an alternative that is affective? If so, what rate do you mix it at ? Thanks

I ordered some ornamental Pompass grass seed to grow around the house. It came in a very small package that claims it contains 500 "seeds". Though it looks like WSG fluff style, I'd like to grow it in pots some how to have isolated clumps of it growing around the house. Whats your best guess...

Found some abandoned apple trees this past weekend I wouldn't mind starting to give a little TLC. In Mid Michigan, buds swollen, but no signs of leaves. Can I prune yet this week ? Thanks

I'm about a week away from putting my Muzzleloader away for the season again. I have tried many different approaches to try and store it, and always end up with rust in the barrel. I pull the breach, left it in, open/shut, bore buttered the heck out of the barrel, left it dry, etc. and always...

I bought a youth Genesis bow for my nephew who is 5 yrs old. What do you suggest for arrows to go with it ? I assume I will get them cut long so he can grow into them, but wasn't sure on the weight, etc. ? Thanks :)

Getting that time of year when people are putting in for time off, or already have it scheduled to hunt the rut. Starting the first week of November in the midwest, what do you find is the best temps for good movement, and what is the top end where it darn near shuts it off....even in...

I go through a pound or 2 of activated carbon powder every year, which I strongly believe in, but was looking for something a bit less messy for my undergarments, socks, and IN my boots. Anyone have experience with Zeolite, and is it safe to use on your skin like carbon ? Thanks

I am working with a field of pollinators that has many broadleaf plants that I want to protect as well as abot 10% WSG in the mix. The field has been taken over by cool season grasses. I was wondering if I could use Poast herbicide that is a grass select herbicide that should kill the cool...

Seems like We've been saying this for a while. Every year we have an increasing number of 3.5 yr old bucks that we pass on hoping to get them to next year, but our number of 4.5 yr olds seems to stay the same. Anyone experiencing this? We hunt smaller properties 20, 23, 11, and 40 acre...

Do you guys dip your evergreens in watersorb, or similar products before planting? Thanks :)

I have a pile of 20" and 2-3' Norways, to put in the ground the first week of April. I have plenty of help (9-10 guys), but not sure the right tool for the job? I have 3 -6" hand augers, I could use a tractor or 2 with an 8" auger, or each guy with a traditional shove. The site is a sandy...
