    New way of fixing B118

    I have been registered to be notified when back in stock since he quit selling them. Never been notified. I just registered again and it said I am already registered. I am about out of space anyway and only do a few trees a year now. Ryan’s Dolgo rootstock have been the best I have used and it...

    Kubota MX series

    Unless the price was right I would look for another machine. Could be fine but I always trust my gut and sounds like yours is telling you something.

    New way of fixing B118

    Dolgo has become my favorite rootstock. All of mine have done great. I wish Bluehill still sold the rootstock for grafting.

    New way of fixing B118

    Almost every one of my B118 trees look just like that one. Not a fan. Luckily I only have a few.

    Winke Gave Up On ROD

    This is my ROD patch. Probably 10-15 years old, I have posted pictures of this before if someone wanted to search for the threads. I planted 100-200 seedlings with a dibble bar a year for several years before it finally got ahead of the deer. Took a few hours a year and the seedlings were dirt...

    Ordering a 606NT and need some help

    That definitely describes my planting conditions. My 606NT has the turbo coulters and smooth press wheels. Totally happy with how it performs and would not change anything. I rented a 706NT for a decade with the same setup.

    Ordering a 606NT and need some help

    I have the turbo coulters and smooth press wheels on mine. Don’t think I would change anything if ordering another one. Western NY/Northern PA. It’s a great drill, you will love it.

    606NT drill and JD 4120

    I own one of those drills and you will be fine unless you have significant hills or sloping plots, then just plant downhill. Drilling the seed gives you a little wider window but you still need moisture. The drill gives you the benefit of using moisture from any rain before you plant as the...

    Can I get by planting cereal rye early as an early food source

    I just seeded 3 plots with rye/clover in the last 2 days. I will get a couple more in this week weather permitting. I have a bunch of plots that have to be done so I have to start this early. I am on vacation one week mid August and head to elk camp in early September so I have had to work...

    ATV Spreader recommendations

    I have a Moultrie that was relatively cheap and has worked fine. I have owned it for a long time and done a ton of plots with it. All size seeds from clover to large grains and fertilizer. https://www.moultrieproducts.com/food-plot-spreader

    Last Year's Standing Rye and Clover

    I did spray it and drilled in Green Cover Summer release on most of the plots I used it on. I have been playing with the release system. There was enough clover that I didn’t dare plant without killing it, so I think there would have been no problem having enough clover in the standing rye to...

    Bluehill 2025

    Primetime have been the best in both growth and shape. First year with a good crop on them, anxious to see if the drop time is as advertised. Gram’s Gift and Kerr have done pretty well also. My Big Dog has been my slowest grower.
