Besides the fruit trees, muscadines, and blackberries - we have three 75 ft rows of green beans about five inches tall and one row of sugar peas. Got 26 tomatoes already planted and a dozen more to put in the straw bales. Some lettuce, zucchini, and yellow squash, maybe 15 pepper plants. When...

Those gears collect dust even if you spray graphite, blaster, or nothing. These are straight behind a disk gang. I bought the seeder slightly used. The seed meters were corroded in place. In fact, the person I bought from told me he was afraid to lube them for fear they would gather dust and...

My opinion, of course - people are often talking about what is the best tasting freshwater fish - is it walleye, crappie, catfish, etc. There are many saltwater fish better than the best tasting freshwater fish😎

On my woods seeder, the gears are metal. If I dont keep them lubricated, corrosion will make them difficult to adjust as needed. Yes, dust sticks to the gears lubricated with wd 40. I have used so called dry lubricant - dust also sticks to that. When I get done using mine, I hose those metal...

Bluegill my favorite among bass, crappie, or catfish

I have hosed out my Woods Seeder - looks very similar. Make sure it is a good sunny warm day and it will dry pretty quick. Afterwards, I spray wd 40 on the seed meters. Open them all the way and spray and close all the way and spray. Do not used pressure washer

Has that had fertilizer in it?

He sprays in July and 100% kill rate - even on water lotus. He also uses AMS surfactant with that

My drone applicator uses gly at something like 52%. But, it is still mixed with some water - but not anything like tank mix on a tractor. I think tank holds about 5 gallons and he sprays about 3 acres on a tank and battery.

I remember one time a couple years ago complaining to my wife that I hadnt caught anything in a couple days. She said “I thought that was the point - to trap them until there arent any left”. I think @356 is right there - and at a perfect time - nesting season. 👍

I always wonder about that when I hear of high deer populations. I have killed one deer in the last six years. We have enough deer to generally see a few every hunt - but I also understand with our low fawn recruitment numbers, you have to have a lot of does to produce enough fawns to maintain...

My coons become trap shy pretty quick. I like to saturate with traps and trap about four days - or until I quit catching - and pick up

Everything green here A lot of verbena growing in the wheat - but doing no harm - now. Pollinators all over it

Fish and turtles in pond My habitat buddies - Ozzie the Aussie and Jager the small munsterlander

Yep, killing them in a trap can be a mess. I always tried to find someone who would kill them and take them home.
