Did a 1 pint an acre spray on my home foodplot last week. Even did a double pass on the new little addition. So that got a quart an acre on lawn grass mostly. The rye looks like it didn't miss a beat. Sprayed it around 11am on sunday, so it definitely dried before the night frost / dew...

Been quiet on here. I know some of you have been planting. Put in Williams pride, pristine, chestnut, and 2 empires on M111, a cranberry and dogo on B118, and put a enterprise on M7 for a friend at camp in a grow pot for his new home. Got rootstocks, (3) gallarinas, a sundance, and second...

Never monocroped crimson clover before. I got a ton of crimson clover to spread. Too late in the year to frost seed. Would like to do a spring and maybe a fall plot with them. Probably oats n clover and maybe some brassicas in a spring plot, where I am not going to do much if anhthing for a...

Been eyeing them over the past year or two. Could do more food plots deeper in woods with something pretty portable. I have spring harrows, disc cultivator, and tire drag for my ATV. How are the drag harrows around taller grass and brush. They get clogged up quick like my spring harrows...

Was in the car yesterday, I sneezed and heard a pop on my lower right side, had cold sweats for a minute or two right after. Like the ones with shock. got me real worried, thought I ruptured something inside. Hurt like heck too. I was 3 hours from home, so I sucked it up until the end of...

Boxed up my soil samples today. They asked me about crop codes? I am doing the rye/clover/turnips rotation more or less. They had Rye cover, Rye for Seed, Rye grain, pasture/legumes, intensive pasture managedment (control grazing), Wheat/legume, and oat/legume. They asked what was there...

Thinking of buying 2 out three this year. Avoiding white dutch, which I bought for years. I have the base clover mix of ladino and medium red. Want to add a 3rd seed to the regular blend. One for my home area, heavy soil, poor drainage, low 6's pH. Then another for the adirondacks...

Wondering if black walnut is worth it wildlife wise. I have black walnut bordering my neighbors property. The mature stuff is in poor shape, likely hollow in the middle. Poor timber value. I got 10-12ft tall young walnuts all over my herdrow area. They need some vine clearancing. Have...

I got 26 root maker pots waiting for their rootstocks. I usually plant the rootstock and graft, then put it in the window right away until it can go outside. Should I put them in the window right away, or wait a week or two for the graft union, then put them in the window? I'm also putting...

Anybody have ant issues with their trees? Wondering if using woodchips makes the problems worse. I was tempted to mix in woodchips into heavy clay soil, but avoided that with my tree plantings so far. Still tempted to try that though. I get pickup sized loads of woodchips for free from time...

Curious what folks are going out there with. What you're loading into it, what is your zero and max distance. Maybe even what distance you need minimum to hunt ok. I got a T/C Omega with 1.5-45x32 bushnell elite 3200 scope. Currently put 240gr XTP's in it with 100grs of FFFg blackpowder...

Going to do a twist on the favorite 3. Since many of us have more than a handful of trees around. My home in zone 5, all trees are young but went with good tasting multi-purpose disease free trees August- Redfree and Pristine. September- Chestnut and Trailman. October- Liberty and Empire...

Anybody have a pretty flat shooting muzzleloader from a typical 50 cal? I've been using hornady XTP 240gr hollowpoints and 100grs of FFFg blackpowder. Prefer to keep around 100 grains of powder. Probably need to use white hots to get more speed. Gun is a T/C omega, 28" barrel, pretty sure...

Saw a nursery im ordering trees from has mulberry. Think itll survive the adirondacks, now a zone 4. Think it will be great for grouse and snowshoe hares up there.

Still thinking of putting a few more trees up at camp. Got (2) 30-06 on B118 that need to go somewhere else other than the backyard. Camp got rezoned from 3B to 4A. Still think Canada's cold can put some hurt on trees up there. So much is discussed about the scion, but not much on the...

Anyone seen a bullet drop diagram for whitetail deer. Something that shows what 10,15,20, or 25 inches high looks like on a average deer broadside.

Anybody use one of those standup freezers that can double as a refrigerator? Thinking of buying one. I have a standup freezer in the basement that is old, but working ok. Right next to it is a basement fridge. I has trouble keeping the freezer that cold. IT might be because the fridge...

Guess I will start this. Squeaky wheel gets the Grease. Edited 2/9/24 My trees have been pruned and scions went out. There still folks who might have scions lower in the page here.

Looking to turn the soil in the spring or late summer. I have the lime on hand. Was thinking of liming my foodplot with rye in it this winter. Does ithe lime beat up the rye? I have a 3ft drop spreader, so I will get alot of tire tracks on the plot. Is there a certain time in the winter...

I am keeping three identical apple trees for a tutorial of sorts. It'll be the story of the 3 little Kerrs. One will be virtually unpruned, one middle of the road, and the third will be agressively pruned. All will be central leader styled. Seems there's little well documented story's on...
