    1st plot..Have a 1/2 acre limed and ready..what to plant

    Since it is a first year plot, and if your intent is to plant the full acre. I would lime the other half of the plot asap. I believe you said you already have the seed so why not plant it as planned. If it doesn't work as well as you would like you can always save the plot with rye. I do a...

    Bedding

    Thanks for the replies. I did not plan on planting any additional trees but i am not opposed to it. This area is full canopy so my thoughts are the growth should be pretty explosive with the amount of sun it will see after cutting. Ray

    Bedding

    I am in the process of cutting 1/2-2/3 acre bedding area on the property. Mostly comprised of Poplar, Red Maple and a few oaks. I will be doing mostly clear cutting but will be leaving the highest potential oak trees and perhaps hinging a few of the smaller red maples. The area is a south...

    Direction of food plot

    I appreciate the response. I am having the same problem with the winds/thermals, most days the wind in light and variable. I am getting it figured out but slowly. I have 1 plot that is 1 acre and it gets pretty beat up by November. I want to add another plot or two that will hopefully take...

    Direction of food plot

    Thanks for replies. The plot will be in a valley so I am not planning on hunting the plot, just the trails leading to it on higher ground. I just want to maximize the plot growth with most sun possible in that type of area. Ray

    Direction of food plot

    I have 110 acres of property in southern Ohio. The property in in hill country, mostly rolling and for the most part not overly steep. I currently have one food plot that is one acre and I am going to add an additional food plot that will be about 1/2 acre. The food plot will be a basic...

    Ozone Clothing shed

    Has anyone who use the ozone bags or ozone for clothes had a problem with damaging the clothes? I have heard that can happen. I just don't want to put any expensive clothes in it if they will damage. Ray

    Does my plot stand a chance?

    X2. Assuming there is bare spots or sparse areas I would broadcast 200 lbs of rye per acre. I have done it before and it really helped.

    Aug 1st Brassicas

    Just checked mine this weekend, they were planted on August 8th. Instead of fertilizing with UREA I used 100lbs of 22 10 6 on 1/2 acre. My property is 6 hours away so planning around a rain is very difficult. I fertilized two weeks ago and it finally rained after 1 week. I am very pleased...
