Going to get first gly spray down soon for RC SG and vitalize mix planting this May. Question is, what will simizine and gly do to location that I’m going to run vitalize mix in which will be planted alongside the SG? Should I separate the two locations and only run Gly where the vitalize mix is...

He sells them in a mix I do believe. I ran Higgins HOC and Tony’s HOC side by side this year. Had tons of left over this February and I only planted app 3.5 acres. I was told I was nuts for planting such a small amount. No one plants corn anywhere close, it was weird the deer didn’t hammer it...

What are thoughts on planting perimeter of hay field .75 acre with pear? I’m unable per family farm rules to plant food plots in this location but able to use perimeter to put in fruit. This would be 3/4 mile from destination and would be advantageous to pulling deer off neighbors and...

I’ve got 15 more pear coming next month and an additional 20 rootstock/scions for future plantings. I’ve been listening to Higgins and his crew subscribes to fruit in the destination. Just wondering if everyone is on board with that? Also I can’t plant food on my uncles 75 but he’s got good...

I’m sure this has been asked but for you guys running a lot of fruit, are you keeping it in a destination food source or do you place in transition/kill plots too? Trying not to over think this but I put in 25 pear and crab this past year in my big food destination plot. I have a good pinch in...

I ran hemp rope from Smokey’s with the wicked wicks scent this year, the scrape got hammered. A buddy put it up for me and I wasn’t overly happy with where he put it but it worked. I ended up ordering 50 ft of hemp rope and it’s airing out at the farm now, I’m going to run a handful of hemp and...

Have any of you planted soil builder mixes like Vitalize/Droptine/Green Cover? Anyone have any opinion on these? I like the idea, with limited acreage to plant 3 acres I worry beans won’t stand a chance especially with my recent census after cutting last falls corn. Anyone run these rotations...

Curious how everyones project scrapes did during 2023 season? I was browsing YouTube and ran by Skips mock using hedge, was that one a success? Anyone have any trial and error changes for this coming year? Is there a consensus that the pine limb with attached licking branch is a good dual...

Jake, so glad you roped him in. I know a couple guys who know a little bit of everyone in the game and have had them to their farms, out of all the guys out there the two who don’t know each other both say Tony’s approach works the best on their farms. Specifically breaking up sight lines...

I have a couple acres of corn seed left over from last year, would this be good seed still?

Listened to Tony Lapratt on the latest Exodus podcast. He was praising beans and corn planted together at 70/30 with a grain drill. Curious if anyone has tried this and seen success? He said deer won’t detassel the corn due to it not being planted in rows, rather random.

This is what I got, all my co op had currently that had the Phos @ 8%. This look decent????

Appreciate it!

Thoughts on Nutrena brand, no purina near me. As long as the Phos is at or very near 8% is this likely very similar to the ones you have referenced?

Can’t afford a no till. Doing a big grafting project and have another 15 pear on order. Are there any clover/s blends or brands you guys agree on or do yall use co op seed?

What do you all do in and around your fruit orchards for food sources? Should I establish clover and yearly refresh with a frost seeding? I’ve got a good 30 trees in and don’t want to get near them with a tiller? Just curious what you all do for best results?

I’m bouncing back and forth on my Ohio plans but I’d really like to try beans this spring. Total acreage would be 3 acres beans, 1 acre clover, and then a 3/4 acre fall mix in an interior woods plot. For those of you that have fenced your beans, what’s a good “budget” fencing company? Any...

I found the answer to the first question from skips original post…

My adhd is kicking in and I’m not seeing where you guys find your granulated garlic??? How much garlic and molasses are you putting in? What Lb rate of mineral are you putting out at a given location, how many on 100 acres would you run? Lick in the interior or out on plot edge for easy...
