    Stock Market is the bottom in?

    Nvidia and AMD are two of the bigger players. For others, look up the holdings for a semi conductor ETF such as SOXX among others. Personally I would then research those holdings myself and see what you which you want exposure to. Otherwise you could buy the ETF. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Spread and Spray Question

    Havent been on here in a long time but I ran into an issue Due to tractor problems, I was only able to disc about 3 acres. It is far from a clean seed bed but I plan on spreading rye and clover, dragging, then spraying. I also plan on doing this to 2 small kill plots. Here is my question, I...

    Ironwood, hop hornbeam control

    One other thing. Ironwood gets way worse once it has dried. I usually dont have too many problems cutting it down. Just make sure you cut it into firewood right away if thats what you are doing. We use it for fence posts and even legs on stands but you need to make sure you get the nails in early.

    Itasca Greenhouse Policy Changes

    I've always had good experiences with NCR. Their website says you cant mix and match but every time i have ordered, they have given me the price break.

    Dead grouse

    Grouse get really stupid this time of year. The berries they eat begin to ferment and these incidents are fairly common.

    Input on my new plan ?

    Read multiple books/sources before starting everything and then apply it to your situation. You will see many things are agreed upon and others are just personal preference. Details are fine but the overall design of your property is way more important. On small acreage, you can't have...

    First Wolf on camera

    Sandbur- this is in Wadena county if that helps for reference. We have had them around for awhile but they are getting more and more common. Neighbors and family have seen them from time to time but this is the first one on camera. We had the game warden verify a kill about 15 years go...

    First Wolf on camera

    We have had wolves around for quite some time but this is the first one on camera I am sure about. For perspective, this is my 70 lb lab.

    DNR suspects hunter saw bobcats, not mountain lions

    Maybe we can send the MN carnivore specialist out to CA with his cardboard to confirm.

    Tree Species to plant for visual barrier

    NCR and Itasca should have plugs if you wanted to go that route. I have no idea what the shipping would be from MN to VT.

    Good to know. Wow, I bet that would be quite the video.

    DNR suspects hunter saw bobcats, not mountain lions

    MN DNR has long said there are no mountain lions living in MN. Just young males that get pushed out of their home range in the Dakotas and are traveling through. I am sure 2 in one location did not fit that narrative very well. Some guy shot a female a few years ago and they found a way to spin...

    Wolf?

    I am thinking yote. He doesn't look tall enough/long legged. Do you have any pics of a full size deer in a similar location. Wolves are usually almost as tall as a deer where coyotes are much shorter.

    DNR suspects hunter saw bobcats, not mountain lions

    I found a better article. http://www.twincities.com/2016/11/11/2-likely-cougar-spotted-in-northern-minnesota-fighting/ I deal a lot with photographic evidence, reading the first article I couldn't believe he came to that conclusion. While I still believe it was a cougar, the second article...

    DNR suspects hunter saw bobcats, not mountain lions

    http://www.inforum.com/news/4160124-dnr-suspects-hunter-saw-bobcats-not-mountain-lions Umm, this is some terrible analysis done by a DNR "specialist". Look at the perspective of the picture supposedly taken from the same stand. The cardboard also is not even close to the same positioning as He...

    Tree Species to plant for visual barrier

    3/0 NS is 3 year old seedlings (none transplanted) of Norway Spruce. I have no idea why your forester would say they are invasive. They may be non native but invasive seems like a big stretch. They are no more invasive than any other evergreen you would plant. I would say plant 2 to 3 rows of...

    Saving plot seed from previous year?

    It is not a big deal. But figured it should be said. If you had like a 60% germ rate and you used 140% you would only have an equivalent 84% germ rate (140 x 0.6).

    Saving plot seed from previous year?

    Technically you need to adjust your planting rate by 125% to get to 100%. Should be 100 divided by your germination rate (100/0.8=125)

    Hunting Boots

    I hunt in MN and I have struggled with this before. This is what I have found to work. First, the rest of your body has to be warm. If your core, head, arms or legs are cold it may be more bearable but your feet will also be cold. Secondly, I like boots with plenty of room so I can wear 2 pairs...
