I’ve got a 60 gallon fimco sprayer with the retractable booms. It works well but the dumb thing has no drain plug. Has anyone installed a drain plug in one or something similar that has worked? If so how’d you do it?

How do you guys roll up and/or remove your wire at end of season? I used poly tape one year and while it was relatively easy to remove I wasn’t particularly impressed with its effectiveness. I’m thinking about using just regular old steel wire this year but am concerned with how much of a pain...

I planted 2 acres of rw beans. They did hold up well to browse. I had them fenced but I don’t really know how much of a deterrent it was once the plants got big. If they are shatter resistant I’d hate to see what they’d do if they weren’t. I was walking around my fence late season on a day with...

Darn good firewood

I’ve got a 120x40ft garden I’m not going to plant any vegetables in this year. Thinking about planting something that will put some nutrients back in the soil. Anything I plant will be tilled back in. I considered doubling up on something like turnips/radishes, tilling them in, then replanting...

How long does it take that tordon to spread? I’ve killed a lot of russian olive with it the last few years but have not seen any evidence of it spreading

This isn’t really related to land prices but how do you guys navigate sales where one chunk is broken into individual tracts that have no obvious fence or boundary between them? I’ve seen multiple times where an agent will just draw lines on a plat through open fields and call that the new...

I once watched a pack of 4 chase down a longbeard. He couldn’t fly but was running from them. My guess as to why he couldn’t fly was one had nipped him already. The gob was in pretty bad shape. He actually took to the water and somehow floated there like a duck when the dogs wouldn’t go in after...

So they’re eating the pumpkins themselves and not the plant? If so at what stage of pumpkin fruit growth do they start eating them? That’s wild to me. I’ve literally never had a deer eat one. Squash bugs and cucumber beetles tho are the devil

I had the same experience this year. 3 years ago in mid October I watched and heard deer eating the turnips and radishes. It literally sounded like a person biting into an apple. Time late season rolled around about everything was gone. This year they didn’t touch them til late season. They...

That’s an interesting thought. I planted sorghum as a screen once and noticed it kept getting knocked over in random spots. I initially thought wind til I watched a herd of does come up and shoulder it over til they could reach the heads with their mouths. They certainly eat it for sure

Do deer eat pumpkins? I always have a big patch of em in my garden and occasionally see deer tracks among the plants but I’ve never noticed any damage. I think corn is king this time of year but aside from fencing it I don’t know how I’d grow it at the farm. When I planted beans 2 years ago I...

I’ve got almost 2.5 acres I plot every year. 2 years ago I had it all beans that I fenced off. I dropped the fence before season and it took the deer awhile to eat everything. This past year I sectioned off 4 squares and planted ww and clover in 2 and ww, radishes, and turnips in the other 2...

I’m sure many of you guys use a tank deicer. I need to get one for my 100 gallon tank but online reviews don’t seem to be too good on any of them. Online reviews have to be taken with a grain of salt I know but anyone have any suggestions? Only using one 4ish months out of the year it would seem...

Yeah that’s bs imo. It’s more so they don’t have that info readily available on their price per plan page. I’ve been running all my cams on 2 shot for over 2 years. Never noticed it til it was posted here. To charge folks a fee for pictures that have to be retrieved from the sd card is insane...

That’s news to me too. So if you have it set to take 2 pictures every trigger and you get 125 of those sent to your phone your starter plan is still used up for that month? This makes no sense. The cam still takes pictures even after it goes over they just don’t get sent to your phone. They are...

Geesh he’s definitely your offspring alright. Look like twins a couple decades apart. Solid work

I’ve seen 2 farms recently that sold for $3100 an acre in Shelby county and $2900 an acre in Macon county. That’s here in northeast mo. But a farm sold last week maybe 7-8 miles from the Shelby farm for $5000 per. The one that sold last week was 80 acres and the one that sold for $3100 was 98...

What part do deer eat on a hedge apple tree?

After 2 back surgeries and a 3rd a certainty someday I bought a cheap used crossbow a few years ago and am now ready to upgrade to a better model. The only features I know I want are the ability to mechanically cock and decock it. I don’t care if it can shoot 100 yards or 900fps. Reliability and...
