    attracting turkeys / creating strut zones

    I think turkey can vary year to year. Last year my property full of Jake’s and Tom’s. This year only hens. My wildlife biologist thinks you need 1/4-1/2 acre clearing every 20 acres to support turkey and quail

    Chance of freeze damage - pear vs persimmon

    Every year I get more like you. Better to plant 5 correct trees, plant them well, and care for them, than 50 half way

    GP/LP 3P600 or 3P606NT user thread

    Multiple multiple posts on this exact question. My 3p600 works perfect for no till, and I wouldn’t trade it for a 3p606nt. Many think the front coulters on the no till version do more harm than good. Maybe I’d no tilling constantly into corn stubble, but mine does great in thick thick sorghum...

    Chance of freeze damage - pear vs persimmon

    I have that same bladder. Just such a pain to do it. I’ve watered a bunch of trees, just have a hate hate relationship with watering. Haha

    Been a hard few days at my house.

    A coyote got our beloved family cat. I live in a city, but in an area with lots of woods and big lots. The coyotes are out of control. My cat was an indoor cat, but would sneak out at times. Two yotes killed him on Friday night. I’m not a vengeful guy, but I will get my revenge on those...

    Chance of freeze damage - pear vs persimmon

    Question @Native Hunter. My ridges here in Alabama stay much drier. Any less early survival during establishment of your ridge fruit trees vs valley? I just bought a new property and am planning an orchard on a ridge. Just worry about them early, just not a good way to water them. I plant all...

    Some have had good success with buckwheat. My results have been average at best.

    Starting a new plot

    @FarmerDan, would love you to weigh in on this. @SD51555 and farmerdan are my go too guys on soil ph. Read the throw and mow thread too. Liming it and letting it grow up like a jungle would repair the soil as much as anything before a fall plot. Maybe lightly disc in the lime, which will cause...

    Starting a new plot

    Read this Grizz. He is 100 percent right. That lime figure is way too high. Most food plotters shoot for 6 or 6.5ph, not 7. Most put lime out in increments. You’re gonna get runoff and will lose some of the lime you add each time, even with discing it in. If it was me, I would spray some...
