I know this has been talked about a number of times. I recently lightly ran my disc through a 3 acre field and then sprayed gly/liberty for a burn down. Waited 2 weeks, came back and saw I missed a few spots with my sprayer, no biggy. I ran my disc again lightly throughout the 3 acres and then...

The only access I have to the plot is with a utv so I’d be using a spreader. Looks like I can get 300lbs of Pelletized lime for $40 so that may be the route I go.

So I have a half acre plot that has some existing clover in it. I ran a soil sample through WI and am trying to figure out what pelletized lime to get to throw down. My intentions are to let the clover grow throughout the summer and then plant a fall blend for deer season. I have an acre of...

Hahaha, I’ve had others tell me this too.

So my question is this, has anyone used an aerator in a clover plot to plant a fall mix? I have a frost seeded .5 acre clover plot and wanted to try to fill in some brassica species come Aug. for more diverse food come season. I don’t have access to other equipment to get to this spot. Just...

Well time got away from me but finally got back down to the farm. The OG clover plots are actually doing real well following the brush hogging and spraying. The 2-4D killed all the horse weed and didn’t affect the clover at all. I’m hoping to get back down before Sept to mow/spray both clover...

This was a 1 acre clover plot that was also choked out as well. Cut and sprayed, I’ll know more in 2 weeks when I’m back down at the farm

Central IL, year 2 of established clover. 42 gallons of water, 2.5 gallons of 2-4d with hi-yield surfactant. Gordon’s 2-4d Amine 400. Sprayed a total of 8 acres. Drove 5-8mph on atv which calculated out to be 5.5GPA. Gumbo 45 gallon sprayer 2.4GPM pump

Just sprayed 2-4d.

Everything I have read says 2-4d does the job along with a few others. Also says to combine 2-4d and Gly. There’s a good amount of white clover throughout the plot so hopefully by mowing it will help the clover grow. If not, I’ll have to just try to kill the entire plot and start over in Aug.

Can anyone tell me what these are? I’ve brush hogged about 3 acres of it and sprayed 2-4D. It was chocking out my clover plots. Going back in 2 weeks to mow again and then spray clethodim. Thanks for the help!

I appreciate the info from everyone!

I have no worry about deer not being there. The density in the area and on the property is well in doubt. Just looking for ideas of what/how to do with this field. I may want beans again but I may also want some cereal grains. Not too sure since I have a green-grain plot.

Well I’ve got a 1acre clover plot going to the beans. So really I’m open to anything

This is my first post as I’m new here. I’m purchasing a chunk of property that has a green to grain food plot. 1 acre green into 3 acres beans. The beans were left standing and are still standing to this day. I am closing on the property in a month and am looking for advice. I don’t have big...
