Just put winter rye, oats, peas and clover in one of my small plots that ended up in grass & weeds after two months of rain & not being able to get to it so pretty similar mix. It’s what I had on hand, will see…

Exactly what I did yesterday. So much rain so often this year my small plots got away from me. A couple spots I’ll have to do over…

Nice!

Zero turn mowers can flip over. If you know anyone that is using one without the ROPS or not using the ROPS, please talk to them. Mowing around ponds is inherently and especially dangerous. I apologize if I am preaching to the choir. Looks like there are some better options…

Do you just leave the rye or terminate at some point? I threw some rye into some grazing alfalfa that didn’t do much for a year. With the rye and more fertilizer it REALLY took off…interesting…

Bucks seem to cover an awful lot of ground in the breeding season. Apart from screening your personal property, my thought would be to encourage as many neighbors as possible to help patrol. Thank you for sharing your experiences on this topic. I’m absolutely convinced poaching is a FAR worse...

Speaking of packing, when the ground is dry my ATV pull behind cultipacker does compress fully into the soil, it rides on the ribs. Do the CAT 1 & 3 pt hitch style fully compress to the flats easily? If so, I’m interested.

Would broadcast & cultipack yield results as good as drilling right now. Spray roundup before seeding?

Congrats

Congrats

Nice, I might be looking for same drill this fall…

What does the cost per acre work out to be?

Congrats to Dakota!

Just finished up doing a lot of girdling & cutting smaller trees (1-3” dia.) for one of my 2025 projects. Thought I’d mention this saw since I use it a lot also & it’s quite a bit more affordable than my Stihl professionals… Echo CS-271t, 27cc @ 6.6 pounds, runs great with a sharp 12” blade.

Congrats!
