    Ozone

    I made a sealed closet in my garage(2x5x6) and put an ozone machine I got off of amazon in it. I have racks and a dowel to hang/set clothes, boots, and other hunting paraphernalia on. It has worked great. Easy access before hunt and after hunt. Fresh clothes each time.

    Native Wildflowers and Plants

    IBH83, I got the same issue on some crp acres. My county has been allowed to emergency graze and the nrcs told me to spray gly this fall for the cold season grass and then again in early spring for the survivor cold season, I'll add 24d for the rosettes at that time.

    Switchgrass

    first glance, I'd say maturing foxtail, it's going/went to seed. I had that occur last year to mine, mowed and mowed and still didn't stop it but this year put oust on it and the stand is a good looking field of switch.

    Best CRP grass mix to choose by end of week

    I agree on thistles being a huge pain in the arse in crp but I haven't found a thistle that gly kills in mine. I have to nuke it with something stronger to get er done. Some of my crp is in emergency haying area so its all getting cut off and then getting a gly treatment after first hard frost...

    perhaps a glyphosate shortage coming

    Just passing along some info a farmer friend of mine told me this weekend. " I may want to buy my glyphosate now as his agronomist told him they didn't know if glyphosate would be available next spring" Don't know the whole story behind the reason but perhaps there may be some truth in it. I...

    Unclear on switch vs crp and when to use each.....

    In a crp planting that is not a shrub/tree planting, only 5% of that crp field can be trees. The local nrcs offices I deal with watch like a hawk that I have no more than that in them. It is an ever going battle with cedars. I like them but only where I want them. They are easy enough to...

    Oust XP

    Thank you Skip, I have prowl and s-metolachlor on hand already, I use that for my weed control in soybeans. Again, thank you. This year's planting looks like I planted velvet leaf in the tree/shrub rows. It is as thick as corn is in a corn field. I hand pulled and chopped all weeds in 2'...

    DEAR OTHER MIDWEST DEER STATES….. From: Iowa

    In NE the state big game biologists have defended the Nov. 9 day season's timing as what most people want as it gets to cold in December to have enjoyable hunts, especially for the young and old. They also say most of the hunters want to see deer when hunting and pressures that be want as many...

    EHD management tactics….

    The ivermectin dosage a vet told me to use is 10 cc mixed with a quart of water, spray that on 50#of feed, mix, let dry and put in feeder. He said do it for May and June and it'd be good to go for summer for the deer that eat it. I went through 500# of corn in this time frame. I bought it via...

    Hunting for a specific buck??

    I hunt small properties, a 55 and an 80. Basically I hunt the oldest one I got living in the area if he trips my trigger, otherwise I hope someone else hunting the farms get him. I get as much out of others getting their dream buck or doing habitat work as I would from actually getting my...

    Bigger antlers in years with right weather ....

I look at habitat management as trying to give the does the best nutrition possible throughout the year via mineral, supplemental feeding from Jan- July( treated corn/mixed feed with ivermectin for tic infestations, they look like...

    Miscanthus Gigantus

    I sprayed 24d on my newly planted miscanthus when it was a foot tall this spring. It worked great on the broadleaves and the miscanthus looks great. It likes a lot of rain to get going and this dry start to the year didn't do it any favors for taking off. I have just shy of a half mile of...

    A recommendation for easy planting of seedlings in heavy clay

    Wow Skip, that is a thing of beauty. Love the story you gave your buddy. Your "Gramps" planter before the crash looked similar to the one we used. I took a couple pics of just the planter. I'll post them up in the near future. That new one your buddy got a hold of looks like a tank. Thanks...

    A recommendation for easy planting of seedlings in heavy clay

    My dad and I got the 1450 trees/shrubs in with the tree planter. It didn't go as smoothly as state forester said it would go. One of the packing wheels was rusted into place and we couldn't get it to move with break free applied as well as a lot of force. I didn't have a source of heat to try...

I will be putting electric fence posts around ones I for sure...

    Tree Planting

    ouc Ouch but those willows will be a good quick fix and I'm sure you'll have cedar backing them no time.

    question on use of oust xp

    My plan is to go with your suggestion of August hammer time(mow as short as possible, wait a couple weeks, gly bomb it, and drill.. I may do a light oust dusting in April and then in August do the above. I can only plant what the biologist says I can plant. alfalfa, red clover, and oats...
