I just had my Ravin done at two year interval. Was about 150bucks out the door. Ravin is kind of like a performance car. You have to do the maintenance to keep them running well.

I use Ravin r29. I’ve had good success with Ravin arrow and titanium 2” mechanical.

What crossbow do you use?

Happy for you Fog. Hard work (and patience) paid off!

Aeschynomene loves the heat. But also likes bottom land soil. Really need to plant about 10lbs/acre of the deer vetch and 5/acre of the Alyce. They like the Alyce but love the Aeschynomene.

Ha. Just looked it up. November 3rd. Thing is after first frost might have a week of 75 degree temps.

Pics from my farm today. My plots had either gotten so tall and thick, or a little weedy so I mowed them to clean them up. The Alyce clover and Aeschynomene is thick underneath so should provide alot of food until first frost in late October. Talk stuff is either sorghum Sudan (all volunteer)...

Just too early here to do that. Still too hot.

Prayers sent. Hang in there

When it gets doughy they chow down. I don’t have a seed head left. I think I’m gonna mow to get some tillering.

I keep mine in the middle.

I have a Firminator and drill. Both do fine, but I would say drill has 2x the germination as the Firminator.

Foward when facing it (toward machine) is less deep. Back toward rear is deeper. Don’t know that it’s specific enough to know exact depth of settings. Also depends on where drive wheel is set for overall trench depth.

Don’t be fooled. Partridge pea is a fantastic deer food. You don’t want every plant to be ice cream for them because they will browse it down and it won’t come back. If I could pick only one native forb to keep it would be partridge pea.

Isn’t that the way it always goes. Ha
