Thanks Bueller. So what do you do when you are ready to plant?

I am looking into what options I have for dealing with mature rye and preparing areas that I planted LC mix in last fall. I let the rye stand this spring and allowed the white clover mixture to grow underneath the rye. In most areas, I now have mature (dead/brown) Rye 3-5' tall and a good stand...

I see a lot of things written about Clover/Rye in the spring but I havent seen anyone talk much about AWP in the spring. I got a chance to check out my plots from last year and noticed quite a few AWP plants are coming up in the Rye. I will try to put up some pics when I get a chance. Any...

Awesome crown! EMAX?

I have two different sets of RIVERS WEST gear. Absolutely love it. I have midweight set that use regularly over the last few years and just got a set of raingear around Christmas. I havent got to get out and use it yet, but think I will really like it. lighter and more breathable than my first...

I will be planting some Sunn Hemp next weekend in NE OK zone 7a/6b. My primary goal is to prepare newly expanded areas of previous plots for a fall planting. I am going to plant it around the edges and possibly leave a strip standing if it gets big enough to act as a screen. I will be planting...
