How about this complete clown. This is Jon Green, Chair of the Johnson County (Iowa City) Board of Supervisors. He made an order in Johnson county to disregard/disobey the Governors proclamation for the colors to be flown at half staff in honor of Charlie. If you read his comments on the issue...

Or expressed otherwise: 100/.46=217.391

A 50# bag of urea contains 23# of actual N. 4 50# bags of urea = 92# of actual N. An additional 17.4# of urea will get you the 8# of N you’re short. So: 217.4# of urea gets you to 100# of N.

Just had some bedding cuts done on mine a couple weeks ago. Go for it! Consider treating your clothes with permethrin prior. I never used to give a second’s thought to the damage a tick can do to the human body. Now that my wife has been diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease 10 yrs ago, and THEN...

At this point all I can be is an echo-chamber to all those who’ve stressed the importance of neighbors. I’ve owned farms here n there. I’ve had the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to neighbors over the years. Currently, I own a piece that has THE BEST neighbor you could possibly imagine...

The switch I planted 3 yrs ago is thicker than the hair on a dogs back in most areas…some thinner spots here & there and even a few tiny openings. But not many. While I haven’t scoured every inch of it (I have ~15 acres of switch in a few blocks from 1 acre to 5+ acres) I don’t see near the...

Hmmm… sometimes the written word can be interpreted many different ways. My take away from the various messages here isn’t that there’s a “right or wrong way” but there are various techniques (especially in the world of a food plotter) that work just fine, depending on the goals of the person...

No, not a stupid question at all. The only stupid question is the one that goes unasked. That’s why we’re all here on this forum…to get answers to our questions!

No, Tracker, not Tractor.

FWIW, Paul Knox used to tell me to never mix my brassicas with cereal grains. Not saying I never did, but his opinion was it’s a no no. Planting brassicas in the same spot year after year can lead to some problems. His opinion was either split the plot or do strips of each then rotate the...

I use the Tracker feature on OnX. Close enough for government work.

Clethodim will kill the grasses and as long as you stay at or below 4oz/acre, is safe on wildflowers.

What recommendations do you guys have for a non selective, long lasting residual control, as environmentally friendly as possible, driveway herbicide? I won’t be applying massive amounts of it, but would like good/great residual in my barn driveway and house driveway - both are gravel. Thanks...

We live on high ground so we’re good

Over 7” at my place in Ringgold

Might be another viable option. I’ve used it on my lawn in the past with great success, but to your original point, not sure I’d want to have too much 2,4-D or Dicamba dripping into my pond.

Not sure of efficacy as I’ve never tried it, but many swear by a mix of white vinegar, salt, and dish soap as a sticker. Might be worth a shot on a patch of it before applying chemicals.

That’s good to hear!

Keep an eye on the foxtail…Quinclorac is good foxtail medicine.
