Does anyone know what the seeding rate would be for rageeed going into a nwsg mix? This is fantastic. Thanks to all for the great information.

I hadn't even thought of ragweed. Deer seem to browse that well around here, and it seems to grow well naturally.

Would you folks please share some examples of forb species that I could broadcast in with a NWSG mix, that are not nescisarily pollinators? What I am finding around here is that some of the local seed providers pre-mix for CRP plantings and pollinator plantings that folks do cost share on...

Fantastic information. Thank you!

Thank you- just so I can learn- what is the reason for this- is it just that it helps spread the cost, or is there a difference in effectiveness/waste/soil uptake. Also- to your point about 2 T/A being correct- the recommended amount was 1.5 T/A of 100% effective lime and the local supply has...

Got my soil tests back today and AFTER adjusting for RNV- I have arrived at an avg recommended amount of 2 tons per acres. I’ll have to call Tomorow to get per ton delivered and spread options but my question for now is- How much of a difference would I see this spring in corn planting and...

I think your correct on all fronts. There is a mix of hard and softwood, but all are sticking up enough to be taken by dozer or excavator. My guess is he'll use the big equipment I just wanted to see if there was anything else folks had done. I don't have any experince with this large or type of...

Thanks. This particular area is low lying in a creek bottom. I have 3 other areas about this size on other parts of my land that it doesn't seem to be a factor in.

I have a have a friend who recently purchased 800ish acres of old timber company ground. It's covered up in stumps to the point that every area he could do somthing is going to need to have the stumps dealt with. In talking the only thing we've been able to come up with are to get a dozer and...

I have a 3/4 acre area where a year ago I killed most of the cannopy with Girdle and squirt or hack and squirt. One of the first plants to come back was spice bush. I have heard this isn't desirable, but I would like to understand why? My primary goal is turkey habitat and deer a close second...

just signed up. Much appreciated

Great video. Thank you for posting.

That thread is fantastic Native. I'm now following it and it's going to be a great reference. Thank you. I also see that we're relatively close geographically so I find that encouraging. It's good to know you've gotten those results without burning or disking. I think one of my biggest...

I have a some stands of NWSG and pollinators that I planted last spring with nurse crop of brown top millet. I'm not in the CRP program, but used a CRP program mix. I have read on NRSC tech sheets that I should not disturb these this first full year, but I am thinking about what the best way to...

I like this! Buy the land, get your wife to think it was her idea! Seriously though- if you can afford it, buy the land. This coming from someone who has only owned land away from where I live- I would love to expand my holdings at home, so many more opportunities. And as someone who has had...
