The issue is the type of grasses that you're fighting. Brome can take a punch of cleth. Generally I use 1 oz per gal of cleth. However, when you are dealing with tough grasses like sedge and brome you need to be hot with cleth to make a difference. In my experience to get rid of that brome...

To kill the foxtail and brome you'd have to go heavy on the cleth. 3 oz per gal. Which that will burn young clover. More established clover will turn brown and burn from cleth but it bounces back within a week. For how heavy you'd need to go with the cleth it would burn young clover pretty harsh.

That bear didn't know he was messing with Randy Johnson!

The cheap black fence holders are nice and easy to use but your line will be on the ground about 20 times during the summer. give and take.

Your picture above is how I did it the first year. Had every deer just jump it with ease. They laughed at me as they jumped. Ha. Have a cool trail cam video of it. Yes, deer go under and they still jump it with ease. You can't keep them all out. Just deter most of them.

This is what I have success doing. 2 rows. Outside row 1 line of poly wire about chest high. Inside row two lines. One at knee height. One at shoulder height. Few feet in between for spacing. On hard corners or where the line will have the most pressure make sure to hammer in T post. If doing T...

Hmmmmm..

Calling him Boonerville.... Now that's the ultimate burn Skip!

I frost seeded all my plots yesterday. A lot of walking and about 40 pounds worth. The forecast coming up for Iowa , now is the perfect time to frost seed. Can't really be too early. Clover seed is pretty hardy. It'll just sit in your soil bed until soil temps get high enough.

A win for the golfers!

I have seen the same results with beans. My largest plot is beans this year. They were wiped out by middle of January. The variety of beans is a really interesting one. I've seen different varieties be hit or miss. 100% up tapped I agree. I've planted the RWW beans in past and haven't noticed...

It was stated about opinions being formed around the "common mans" way of thinking vs the "elitist".. What do you consider "elitist"? Do you think the "elitist" hunters are helping iowa deer hunting or having a more negative affect?

Whose bub?!

No, tags should not be floating from year to year if not filled. Pay for the tag each year. 15 years of age is old enough for youth tags. Many, many reasons why. Buy your 16 year old kid that tag and license... It's memories that will last a lifetime. Yes, raising a family is expensive. And...

The way the field lays out I would do beans the first year. If you have good deer density you'll have to fence off the beans. With how narrow the plot is they'll wipe that out in spots before it can get two leaves on stems. I would also leave 2 acres for a green plot. The older I get the more...

Anyone have experience with burris vs Garmin?

I'm pretty sure they were 140's type. He should have never gave up that lease he has few miles away. Two years in that lease and killed two booners. Tell you how important location is. Even less than two miles away his farm he bought is a far cry from what his lease produced. One negative in...

I personally take the thought of Cleth can have residual in soil up to a week. Others say there is no residual at all. Are you tilling what you already sprayed with Cleth? Cleth takes a while to kill grasses so if you till... your Cleth will have little to no effectiveness.

Keep in mind the 'half life' of 24D is about 14 days. If you mix strong I'd wait 20 days and hope for a good rain in between. Where are you located? In Iowa soils its apprx 14 days of residual.. In harder soils its longer...
