Yeah if that happened, probably something like 90% of crp acres would go by the wayside.

Do you water them immediately or just wait for rain? The kids and I planted a bunch and got them in moisture about an inch deep but the hot wind dried the soil out real fast and now I think some are rooted and some are laying dry. Skunks or coons dug some out also. Plus moles are in 1 of the...

How deep are you guys planting them?

Are small rural schools consolidating in IA? I feel like that's unfortunately necessary. Taxes on my ag land are roughly $70/ac and getting higher by the year. And the small local public school does not rate very highly. We pulled our four young kids out to homeschool them. My wife has a masters...

Will your wife be voting for Biden or Trump?

Looks like mine is 8-10" tall. RC Big Rock

I've heard if you double back and plant beans on a diamond pattern, if you get lucky the deer won't like walking down the rows once they get a little height, therefore pressuring the plot somewhat less.

Just let him do it on that small extra bit of space if it helps him (and if it all passes fsa rules). Seems like a small spot. It's a beautiful looking recreational farm, but as far as farming goes, it looks pretty rough. Either way, doesn't look like its bigger than an acre or 2, can't make...

Mine looked about the same a couple days ago. Exciting days ahead.

I didn't mean that was my stance. Just surprised more "states" aren't banning it. I feel they will. It's possible to ban human interventions, not wild occurring scrapes. My state probably has no interest in finding a cure for ehd. I'm guessing they like the occasional resetting of the population.

If any state is serious about cwd, it seems odd to me that they'd still allow mineral licks. Must be a big mineral lobby, like crossbows. Any Iowa guys voluntarily closing up their mineral sites?

Here's the spot now. I see no grass growing yet. And it's still quite clean. Would anyone just let it go at this point? Or still get atrazine down?

Wow! Thanks for the tip. Yeah I fell behind and then had the memory that Bigrock germs at colder soil temps although I can't find info yet. I'm going to look at it 1st. We've been mowing grass for a couple weeks.

I had kinda forgot about your warning of being careful with spring burn down. I wanted to hit this spot today with atrazine and intended to spray gly also. Is there a chance the RC Big Rock has sprouted? I'm I-80 corridor. The fields been too wet to spray and probably still is, but about to...

Tillage radishes and PTT are that's needed here. I'd actually like trying something that they like a little less, just so they leave it alone until winter just to help them get by.

It's beneficial to mow grass waterways. While I do not have my road ditches looking like golf courses, I do mow them a couple times a year. Around here, scumbags dump their tvs and furniture just off the shoulder. Country roads are narrow. I don't want anyone's grandma blasting something large...

Lol, trail cam pics in there from '16 and '17.

They're asking about double what he got IIRC?

I don't watch his show often, but the way he talked once or twice this past season, he may be interested in buying it back.

Geez it's selling again? Any obvious reasons? EHD, shot all the bucks, just cashing in?
