    Glyphosate

    It’s possible that if you’ve used it repeatedly over the years that the ferns have become glyphosate resistant. Maybe try another herbicide for awhile. We like tenacity for certain applications.

    WANTED: RootMaker Pots and RM18 cells

    If you have a business ID that is related to property whether a rental company or farm/ranching related, you should look into a wholesale account with RootMaker. I choose to use amazon as little as possible bc they are so full of Knock-offs of American Ingenuity products.

    Good ideas! Was going to also bring my range finder up on a ladder before we start building to check angles & distances for our compounds as well as sight-lines for rifles. (with shoulder issue, crossbow might be in the future-excellent idea with the 3" screw)

    Not much of a project, but I do want to try collect some hedge apples & harvest the seeds to grow our own. I haven’t heard of Che trees but googled & they sound interesting but prob would need to be well protected in our locale. Do you grow your own?

    Willy- that would be awesome! We love the “double slider window” idea too. Sadly, the few Osage we have, we won’t want to use, that’s a future propagation project. My Mr was at Milford for building so he’s more “solid bones” & I’m more the “ special features” but we wanted some input bc these...

    I’ve hunted out of a few shooting houses but am usually spot & stalk, however this property needs a shooting house. None of the shooting houses I’ve been in are what I would consider comfortable. I’m not a princess but my time of hiking in 2 miles off trail end to bow hunt elk in the snow at...

    Octagonal shape is definitely in the running stylistically size is approximate due to two 4x8 plywood sheets being an east size to build in from. Have used the tinted deer view before, vertical bow & horizontal rifle & was very happy. Like the blackout curtains behind to prevent silhouetting...

    We remodeled an old shooting house that had garbage windows & put in deer view tinted. Very nice set up. We are actually looking at camo window films for the backs of pickup trucks to cut & out & use on the outside of shooting house windows. Wonder if anyone else has tried that & has an...

    8x8 bc we are together a lot of the times & will soon have grandkids coming with us. We also want to be able to have “sleep overs” in order to not be loud walking in with kids. Room for spotting scope set up to give them more to do as well. We had windchills in single digits during landowner...

    Now that would be some trick to wake up if dead! But I get your point, the venting I hadn’t thought about was for condensation bc we are humid. But yes, venting for fumes is very important too! 👍🏼

    Thanks!! Stairs are a yes & like one we’ve seen here, partially inside if not all inside. Indoor outdoor Carpet and insulating the floor are great ideas! We use armless wheeled office chairs that spin & have cushioning.
