Alright, dumb question, how do I find all of the threads I marked as Watch?

I didn't find a thread for deals people find so I started a thread. This is in SE Minnesota, I can't speak for function but the price and size fits us plotters. Looks to be in good shape and not to expensive if a guy wanted to try it. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/442468513199480/

Hi group, Has anybody used any of the hunting services that help hunters apply, find and buy tags for western hunts? Services like Hunting Fool, Rolling Bones and Cabelas Tags. A buddy and I have been collecting points in several states for quite a few years and have done several DIY/drop...

Hi Group, I'm looking for recommendations on what to do with my apple tree order from SLN. I just got them today and unfortunately Minnesota is having a long winter and I would estimate I am 3 weeks away from being able to plant them. Based on what I read I should probably toe them in at home...

I'm looking for information on how much moisture you save over a growing season by using no-till. I know it will vary widely but I'm wondering with my sandy soil how much I would gain. I know there are other benefits but in a dry season I'd like to know how much of a difference It will make...

I had my placed limed today. I have to admit I cringed a bit when he drove over my corn and beans but I figure the deer won't care and I wanted to get it done. 12 Tons spread in about 30 minutes. With my sandy soil I figured it was a priority so I'm happy I got it done and have found a source...

I was at my place this weekend and got the opportunity to walk my foodplots and am astonished how much the deer are hitting my corn. I have 3 acres of corn and next to it 3 acres of soybeans and the deer are completely ignoring the soybeans and eating corn. This seams early to me. Is anybody...

Ok, John if this is inappropriate please pull it. I am fairly new to online auctions but wanted to get you impressions if this is possible or not. I am bidding on a box blade that has the following bid history. Bid #------------------Amount --- Current-------Winning 1 -----------------------...

My apple trees have aluminum screen around them which is a pain to remove and then put back on. Could I just spray paint the south side of the screen rather than take it off? For the rest of the tree above the screen I can paint but would prefer not to remove the screen. Do you have to dilute...

I have a need for a box scraper to do some road and yard work. I want to level the roads on my place as many have a center hump from farm equipment. I also have a need to spread material in certain areas. Finally I need to level some areas in my yard where my mower is scalping. I have been...

I found this looking for a flail mower. I see they have a few nice items, 4520, tiller etc. it's an auction so you never know on price but there could be a deal found. http://hansenandyoung.com/auction/262135/nelsen-s-hobby-farm-and-household-auction/

Its getting to be that time of year and I would like to get a jump on trapping ladybugs. Every year they get into my buildings and make a mess. Does anybody have recommendations on a trap that works well? Thanks!

I wanted to share a PDF link regarding Switchgrass Field Trials. I found this to be a very good read as the trial areas provide the amount of rain fall and they tested 5 years. They also comment on geographic location and how far is reasonable for trying a variety that is far from its origin...

I am trying to remove the agitator from my Lely spreader and I am thinking I need a tool (puller of some type). I am trying to remove the top cap that slips over the end/top of the rod on this agitator. The cap is rusted and I have soaked it many times with WD 40 and tried a claw hammer and...

There has been a couple threads about apple grafts that are having failures after starting out successful. I am having the same experience (dried out buds, leaf curl and some dark edges on the leaves) and am wondering if the mistake I made was not keeping the humidity level high on my new...

I found this place on Craig's list in Carlton with $25 apple trees. Their Crabs are on standard rootstock and their apple trees are on M7. I thought their price was good. The crabs they have are typical varieties but I might try them. http://theappletreeguy.com/

Does anybody know of a site or have an accurate list of apple trees and their zone ratings. I purchased my scion this year from Maple Valley and all were rated by Maple Valley for zone 3 but want to confirm the zone rating. When I search the WEB for zone ratings I often get different results...

Every year I end up baking in the sun wearing regular jeans and think there has to be a better solution. Who makes a durable work pant that is cooler than jeans and if possible dries out quickly. I am thinking a lighter color would be cooler and would get me away from blue which deer flies...

First, does anybody have a trusted website that will provide low temps for a location? The information I am getting from Minnesota’s DNR Climate site seems wrong. For example their website shows my area (zip 56361) had a low last winter of around -35 while the low this winter was -29. I did...

I’m helping my mother in-law get a new concrete driveway installed so I need to educate myself on what to look for and what to pay for a new driveway. I’m hoping there are a few guys who have had this done that can provide some help so I can get a decent deal for her. Some information: The...
