That’s great! I would highly recommend spot spraying what you can, fire just top kills it and it’s crazy how much regrowth it will put back on in just one growing season post fire. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m in Central Iowa. Want to say the DNR did hundreds of acres second week of November last year. Didn’t know honey suckle had reached that far north. Have to wait until oak leaves go brown. Also another thing to monitor is if you have any frosts before then. If you have a hard frost- the...

Why not? That’s all I know is used around here. 3-5% mix I want to say. That’s what I use when I foliar spray with backpack in fall. Gly for honeysuckle, triclopyr for autumn olive Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Most likely follow up applications were not followed up on those areas for whatever reason (fire/additional chemical applications). What area you referring to? I am also in the area. I would only do aerial applications if the timber understory is solid honeysuckle. After the initial spraying...

Well, for the guys that bury them - A log or large stick might not be enough to help get a fawn out. I had to fish a dead fawn out of mine that couldn’t get out. Felt terrible. I now have a ladder type thing I made with 2x4s and weighed it down with a brick. Think it’s a 100 gallon tank buried...

Can’t help with the corn planter or drilling question as we broadcast and disc in our sunflower plots. We purchase black oil varieties. Can use a pre emergent - brawl . Post emergence application of clethodim if grasses are an issue. You can buy expensive clear field sunflowers and apply imox...

I wouldn’t use 2,4-d or imazapyr. Wait until late summer/through fall and cut stump using 50%gly 50%water. https://www.windbreaktrees.com/mistakes Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Usually have more gly on hand. Have experienced probably close to 100% kill on cut stump with gly. Mix with blue dye, will help you keep track of which ones you’ve treated Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cut stump with triclopyr worked, but I use 50% gly/water majority of the time now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I stacked and burned em up Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thought I would share cedar removal project on my property. So thick nothing was using them. After removal. There was some elms in there that I did a mix of flush cut and hinge cut. I then frost seeded a native seed mix Current vegetation is about 5’ tall, super happy with first year...

I use these tags. Seem decent, no complaints yet but only have had them on for a few months . https://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-Double-Sided-Markers-Identification-Greenhouse/dp/B09MVJP1NY/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah don’t know yet- hopefully! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

foliar sprayed or cut stump? I did a bunch of cut stump this fall with triclopyr Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m still young-ish and ambitious (or dumb?) . Grapple bucket on the tractor would be nice just not in the budget right now. The areas I’m working are relatively small- if it was large scale I would be renting some equipment. I split and burn the cedar in wood stove for the house. Not the...

Cut, drag, stack, burn , repeat. Really is back breaking work. This area I may have cut 20 or so down. I Looked like this before I started. Mulcher would make quick work but then how long are those cedar chips going to take to decompose and let anything grow ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am too cheap to hire someone to do it. I’ll use the chainsaw and make brush piles for small game and burn some of the rest. This is also my backyard so I don’t have to do it all in one day. That is also why I was thinking about planting some new cedars, I can easily manage this area without...

Continuing my war on cedars. This is a half acre of overgrown cedars (it gets thicker than what the picture shows). My plan here is to clear cut the cedars and actually replant cedars in a sporadic pattern and not letting them spread. I was thinking doing half the section in cedars and the other...

Probably area/deer population dependent, but did you guys tube them? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Did some searching on here but didn’t find exactly what I was looking for. Has anyone planted American plums with sole purpose of them to create a thicket? Spacing recommendations? I have a small section of cedars that I will be cutting down and was looking to plant plums in their place. The...
