This year is my first trying the root maker cells. I've got many sawtooth, over cup, English oaks and one chestnut sprouted. How do I know when it's time to move them to a more spacious container?

Good to know that when turkey season ends I can go straight into rut hunting mode.

I've had moldy acorns sprout just fine. Just make sure they don't get soft and rotten.

Are you sure the second one isn't a button head?

Looks like somebody is ready for zombie invasion

wow, don't mess with knuckledragr....

Looking for a good pair of gloves for late-season archery. Key features are not too bulky yet some warmth. I like the Under Armor gloves, but they have the grippers on palms (seems most gloves do) and I'd prefer a smooth grip to reduce bow torque. Any suggestions?

is the rut here already? gonna need an xtra large neck form for the mount

Looking for some help identifying scarlet-vs-schumard-vs-black oak. I have a tree that I think is a scarlet oak, the acorns have overlapping scales on the cap and leaves are pointed and deeply lobed almost like a pin oak. I'm seeing a lot of conflicting pictures in random internet searches and...

I keep forgetting to fertilize my apple trees, would it hurt to add 10-10-10 now?

Sorry to hijack your thread, but I'm offering 3 day trophy IA buck mouse hunts sanctioned by the QMA (quality mouse assoc)

Looking for an app for my new Blackberry that will show my position on an aerial image like Google Earth. I"ve got some free ones that do a good job on a street/map view, but haven't found one for an aerial photo image. Doesn't need to be free, just good. Thanks,

They have little punchouts like a hole puncher. I only halfway punched them out and left 'hanging chads' on the tubes that mostly block the vents. Maybe I need to go around and remove the hanging chads. If I see a few great performers of my rarer oaks, I may have to sacrifice a few tubes and...

I think they are 4" diameter, they are the blue vented tubes, maybe the vents will let in enough breeze to harden them?

Looks like you've got something in the red oak family, but hard for me to tell what kind when they are so young. For those using tree tubes- this is my first year with them and I'm wondering if the trunks of the oak trees inside the protection of the tubes will toughen up since they are not...

Sorry, computer crashed while posting.... Anyway, the tip was that if you are shooting guillotines or bullheads, try using an old pillow for a target. Hang it from a rope suspended from a branch and the pillow absorbs the impact and you don't break blades or damage heads. I wish I had known...

I'd really like to get my hands on 4-6 cold hardy viable Dwarf Chinkapin Oak acorns. I've found sources in the south, but worried they won't adapt to northern climes. I've found sources for bareroot seedlings in the north, but really don't want to spend $50+ on a small order. If anyone has a...

In my opinion, habitat management is the #1 best practice. Culling 'inferior' bucks is probably the least effective. Those spikes would likely grow up to be nice bucks and even if they don't, you will make no impact on the genetics of a wild herd.

I went to the grocery store and bought the largest (16 oz) coffee cups they had - got packs of 24 cups for $1/each. I packed each cup with Miracle Grow potting soil and poked a hole in the bottom for drainage. Placed the cups in a tray, moistened the soil and pushed 1 acorn into the soil in...
