    1st Year Pollinator Being Taken Over by Grasses

    I planted a pollinator mix in May of this year. While I can see that a number of the species has germinated, the foxtail, crabgrass, and barnyard grass have really come on this past week. I am worried they will take over and choke out the native forbs I have planted. I am trying to decide if I...

    Fall Foodplots with Some Height

    Had a failed summer food plot and I'm looking for something that I can plant going forward into the fall that will get some height on it. I've noticed the bucks feel most comfortable coming out into taller food plots that offer more security (corn in the past). Can anyone recommend something...

    706NT with a Compact Tractor?

    The county has a 706NT I was wanting to try out this year but was wondering if a Yanmar YT359 can do the job? It's a little over 4,000lbs, 4wd, and 59hp. I'm planting nwsg and beans across 15 acres, fairly flat land. Anyone have experience with this size of drill on a compact tractor?

    Having a Problem with My Sprayer.

    I have a Fimco 15 gal 12v puller behind sprayer with a 2 nozzle boom. I'm trying to spray Glyphosate to prep for fall food plots. When the sprayer is full it works beautifully. When it starts to get around half a tank, it seems like its pulling air and the mixture gets foamy and will hardly...

    How do I Trench Across Ditch to Bury Electrical Line?

    I am a few weeks from closing on my first land purchase and will also be building a house upon closing. I need to run the electrical line back to a transformer at my build site but I need to cross a small ditch to do so. The ditch seems to always have water running through it so I'm scratching...
