    I need to spray the bigger field with Gly. I cannot afford to pay 100 per gallon of actual round up. What do you all use to help manage $$? Has anyone used this? http://www.ruralking.com/41-2-5-gal-glyphosate.html?cvsfa=1908&cvsfe=2&cvsfhu=303632353830323833 Any other suggestions as to...

    I have a field of 2nd year switch, also with a mix of big bluestem and indian grass. I live in Wisconsin. Weeds came up early this year, some thistles, etc. Am I best off just to keep cutting that field at 6-10 inches until the switch really starts to grow? I also frost seeded a different...

    They are more brush than trees, but the plan is to try to clear all of that stuff up. We also have some HUGE ant hills that are in the field. Big enough that I rolled my 4 wheeler on one last year. I did not really see them because of the tall grass. I took a drive through the middle of it 2...

    Thanks for the reply regarding burning. I will wait until 2013 before doing that. As for Sunburst - I did some research online and that seemed to be preferred for wisconsin because of the cold winters. The seed was very difficult to find, but I found a guy outside Minneapolis that has a...

    I planted Sunburst last spring and am struggling with weed control in the first year. Would you suggest that I burn it all this upcoming spring? Will that help or hurt its growth in the second year? Other suggestion for next spring?

    I planted oats this weekend and also put a patch of brassicas in the middle. Going to frost seed switch next March or so. Hopefully this all works out!

    Switchgrass

    I was thinking of that exact thing. I have some brassicas that I am going to plant this weekend just on a small patch. Put oats in the other areas to get me through this season. Thanks to all for their responses. I am sure that I will have additional questions, but glad that I found this site.

    Switchgrass

    Since this group is a wealth of knowledge, I might as well throw this out there to. As I mentioned above, I planted sunburst early this spring on probably 3 acres of my property. The land was old farm land that had been overgrown with weeds for the past 10 years. I sprayed to kill all of the...

    Switchgrass

    My only concern with this is that the new land is located very close to where I hunt. I really try to keep the land as "quiet" as I can once archery season comes around.... Maybe I will have to sacrifice a little of the "quiet" to set me up for a good growth of switchgrass for next year and...

    Ok - new to the forum and this topic may have been discussed, but I started to read through the previous 70 pages and could not find the topic. I just closed on an additional 30 acres of land next to my house which is on 28 acres. The new land had a dirt bike track on it, which i promptly had...
