Buy a JD and go to your local dealership where parts are stocked. And have the option for next day.

Neighbor called and said we got 4" that morning. More coming today and tomorrow.

My fall plots are looking great! Anybody have a boat!

Depending on budget VenTrac mowers are made for what your describing. We sell quite a few to golf courses in our AOR.

The issue is the type of grasses that you're fighting. Brome can take a punch of cleth. Generally I use 1 oz per gal of cleth. However, when you are dealing with tough grasses like sedge and brome you need to be hot with cleth to make a difference. In my experience to get rid of that brome...

To kill the foxtail and brome you'd have to go heavy on the cleth. 3 oz per gal. Which that will burn young clover. More established clover will turn brown and burn from cleth but it bounces back within a week. For how heavy you'd need to go with the cleth it would burn young clover pretty harsh.

This is what I have success doing. 2 rows. Outside row 1 line of poly wire about chest high. Inside row two lines. One at knee height. One at shoulder height. Few feet in between for spacing. On hard corners or where the line will have the most pressure make sure to hammer in T post. If doing T...

Hmmmmm..

Calling him Boonerville.... Now that's the ultimate burn Skip!

A win for the golfers!

I have seen the same results with beans. My largest plot is beans this year. They were wiped out by middle of January. The variety of beans is a really interesting one. I've seen different varieties be hit or miss. 100% up tapped I agree. I've planted the RWW beans in past and haven't noticed...
