    Building a coyote & hog black rifle...

    If you bury the carcasses next to a couple trees, they will provide a lot of great fertilizer. When I shoot a raccoon, I leave it in the sun for a dau to collect fly eggs. Then I bury the carcass near a tree. The fruit trees I've fed varmints to put on huge fruit loads every year.

    Mineral Fertilization

    How didnthe rock dust work out? I'm thinking of adding some to my plots to support microbes. The literature seems very promising.

    Nice work? You going to eat them? You should save the tusks for a decoration.

    Tristar Shotgun?

    My next shotgun will be a 28ga. I've been reading so many good things, and it seems like a fantastic round.

    Red Spruce = Picea rubens

    1. If you are worried about Norway spruce, consider Canaan fir in addition to the two you mentioned. 2. I don't think tubes are appropriate for conifers. Seems counterproductive to their growth habit. 3. I will be using white spruce and Canaan fir for screening in Ontario. The screen will...

    Low pH, Low Organic Matter.

    Another thing you might consider is horse manure and compost. In Norway, I can get horse manure free by the trailer load. In Ohio, I found a place that charges $40 per pickup truck load, and the guy will load it into the bed with his backhoe. In Ohio and Indiana, compost ranges between free...

    Low pH, Low Organic Matter.

    After you lime and disc it in, I would do a buckwheat/rye rotation this year, followed by a soil building blend next Spring. If it's really sandy soil, add some clay with the lime before you disc. I'd do a bit of pelletized lime to give a quick boost, but mostly ag lime to keep a slow-acting...

    What Habitat Work Did You Do Today?

    Make sure to water them relentlessly. The only sycamores I've seen in Ohio live along rivers, creeks, and ditches where the water table is high and the roots have plenty of moisture. And watch for hollows as they mature. The raccoons love to live inside hollow sycamores.

    Tristar Shotgun?

    We had an explosion of ticks in Ohio. I've been trying to think up ways to get premethrin onto the deer.

    Milo to protect beans?

    Did you get any ripe melons? Didnthe deer eat them? I'm considering buying a whole bunch of melons seeds. I'd like to freeze some cubed melons and see if I can do annual fruits for the deer. If the deer eat them, I'll order extra.

    Red Osier Dogwood

    Sheesh. It took my a while, but I think I figured it out. Should be good now. I'm not so good with social media. Haven't uploaded a YouTube video in years, and that was probably my 4th or 5th ever.
