    Switchgrass

    Broadcasted and rBroadcasted and rolled this one on June 13th. Used Simizine as well. Here it is 8/1. It takes time to get the stuff going IME.

    Tree Planting

    I'm just going to cut my posts off when they get to the point of needing it. I try to use 3/4 in PVC pipes whereever possible, but the t-posts sure are nice for expensive fruit trees for added security from heavy winds and angry bucks.

    Pumpkins are struggling

    Mine have really taken off recently. I'll get an updated pic this week. This is the last pic I had before a coon jumped on my cam and sent it downward. Keep forgetting to fix that.

    Pumpkins are struggling

    Mine are looking pretty good. We've had a good amount of rain this year. The Jack-o'-Lanterns are taking off, and the giant varieties are way behind.

    New switchgrass

    Had some remaining seed left from my 50 lb bag of RC Sundance, so I decided to put in some cover strips to shield one of my food plots via the broadcast method. I tilled last week and then this week I packed it down driving over it with my truck broadcasted the seeds at a higher rate of probably...

    New switchgrass

    I frost-seeded RC Sundance back in March into a field of winter rye that was mostly killed off here in SE Minnesota. So far, I haven’t seen anything come up. I’m thinking about drilling it again myself—just need to track down a drill. I was hoping the seed was just slow to germinate, but I...

    New respect for turkeys

    I always have said, only the smart turkeys come to the calls. The rest wander aimlessly. It's like hunting deer that have had a lobotomy. The smart ones are rare. :)

    Dogwood cuttings

    I'm pretty sure dogwood and Willow have their own natural rooting hormone as long as you rough up one side and plant them nodes up into the ground up a few nodes deep you should be fine The biggest problem I've experienced with them is that the deer will eat them before they get a chance to...

    Simazine and trees

    I had some winter rye in a 3 acre field that I needed to kill off for this year's switch grass I applied Simazine last week at 2 quarts in acre. I would like to plant Norway spruce around the perimeter next weekend do you think it is safe to do so?

    Tree Tube Options

    I also have used Mike for tubes, mats and nutripods. Super good guy!

    Tree Tube Options

    I do the same! Work great! I buy the 10 or 12 foot chunks and cut in half. A little more bang for your buck.

    Make Minnesota Iowa again?

    My town is split into two counties. I'm on the fillmore side. Looking forward to IA resident tag prices! By land mass, MN is essentially a Republican state minus 3 festering blue dots in the Metro, Duluth and Rochester. 78 of 87 counties voted red in 2024.

    Cedars vs pine vs spruce

    I have planted about 100 Norway Spruce in SE MN and havent caged them and they seem to be doing pretty well (minus the few I mowed down). Got the 24 to 36" variety from Yellow River Nursery. I have another 200 coming this year. Seem to grow decently fast. I would transplant more cedar, but...

    IOWA DNR STATE Forest Nursery

    Yellow River does ship or you can pick up in Marshfield, WI. I will say Scott is awesome to work with and there are no surprises. I highly recommend YR. However, trying to spread your dollars matters and looking to add some Arrowwood this year, so I think I will give the IDNR a shot with at...

    IOWA DNR STATE Forest Nursery

    I'm considering saving some cash and buying some trees from IOWA DNR for next spring. In the past, I have used places like Morse Nursery and Yellow River Nursery and have good things to say about both. However, I'm looking at purchasing some Arrowwood (which I can't get from either commercial...

    Persimmon planted and either tubed or caged.

    Good luck. They aren't the most robust trees in my limited experience planting 2 years ago. I have some replacements coming this year on warranty. Iowa, being further south, should help.

    Would like to hear opinions on the most economical cellular camera plan when running about 15-20 cameras?

    Stick with Spartan. Worth the little extra and the durability make up most of the difference over time.
