Hi Derek, I use a triple 19 at planting and follow up with a 10-10-10 when I do any type of over seeding 6 weeks later. I also hit my clover/chicory plots with the 10-10-10 2x-3x per year which also hits my white spruce which have really exploded with growth since planting 2 years ago. I know...

I've been thinking about this post more and more. I have hundreds of Norway Spruce I plant each year all over my property. Surprising they've done very well given two years worth of droughts. However, the Norway Spruce I've planted around my food plots are 3-4x the size of the same Trees...

I'm just a rookie with my orchard and only have about 27 trees caged and in the ground. I do have 3 of (Drop Tine, Crossbow, 30.06) varieties of Terry's since spring 22. They honestly have dwarfed all other trees since that time. My question is could these trees be staked to avoid them...

That's my plan as well in Northern WI. Solar electric from Tractor supply.

Top was dead. Cut back as recommended. Thanks all. Made sense to me, but wanted to make sure before I snipped.

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening, - I planted about 23 Crab Apples spring of 2022 from 3 nurseries. 22 out of 23 are doing phenomenal. Some are 12+ feet tall already with the exception of this yellow dog. Looking for advice if I can save this Yellow Dog or cut my losses look to plant another in...

Ten Point, Those do look rough. We're having the same crappy weather as you. Summer (3 days of beautiful 70's all we've seen) - Winter - Spring -winter. Just received 8" of snow on April 30. I did get 25 Blue Spruce planted last weekend that I received from Chief River Nursery. These were...

Honestly, I'm starting to hate snow and hope it melts fast for you. We had 4+ days of 70's in the north Central part of WI and I still had snow in my food plots past my knees when I left yesterday. We have that same storm system to dump again as well. Oh yea, Think my spruce are arriving in...

I have the Wolverine D and its been outstanding in the 12 months I've owned it.

I half ass planted (Just ran out of steam - bought too much as usual each spring) 100 Rhizomes from Real World as a test. Came packaged well, ontime and from a cold weather source in Canada. They did extremely well last summer in North Central Wisconsin. I'm waiting to see how well they...

I used crushed red granite - I had a truck drop it off last year for my driveway so its what I had. good luck burrowing into that stuff..

I would think that 4x4 mesh would keep a deer out and the price is right. Lets talk fence height and protection checklist for a moment. Just want to make I have this all correct as I go on my spring spending spree on fencing. 5 -6 foot high fence for FRUIT Trees w/solid T posts. I used 4...

Like the idea of the miracle grow. What does waxing the ends accomplish? I had marginal success last year with my cuttings and I'm looking for an edge this year. ha!

I can access from the North East, North, North West (by utilizing national forest) and the south. I never walk through my property. As far as I can tell the deer use it year round to access my food plots or whats left of them by this point. Spot on - no big AG anywhere within 10 miles...

assume you're talking 5'? If so, its about $139.00 per 100' in my neck of the woods.
