    Rooting plum trees

So, in effort to expand my collection of fruit trees around the farm, I've collected around 40-50 Stanley Prune Plum cuttings that I took from a tree I cut down at my aunt and uncle's place.

    Operation Cuttings

    So, after heavy pruning, I had a lot left over. So I've decided to try to root all the cuttings and see what happens. Just a few. Haha. I tired a few pear in a bottle of water and a few apple in a big pot with potting soil. All have aloe on tips for rooting help. Any tips and tricks, I'd be much...

    New (to us) Tractor Rehab.

    So,I finally pulled the trigger and bought a 1969 Massey Ferguson 135. 3 cyclinder diesel, with around 4000 hours on it. She ran but was in some need of some love.

    Massey 135

    Hey guys. I'm looking at picking up a Massey Furgeson 135 for a "travel tractor" for doing habitat, food plot and mowing work at other properties. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with them at all: known issues, stuff to look for. I'm pretty mechanical and I have two other larger...
