If you don't have open soil, throwing seed is a waste of time. Personally, I'd just mow the broadleaf weeds. Then lightly disc or till in the fall, seed with cereal rye and clover seed. Pack back in.

Start a separate thread if you do this. I'd love to follow along! As would many others I'm sure.

I could see how they could not enforce for out of state drivers. In state, probably can’t renew your license plates without paying.

If I knew I could get a 10% survival, I'd release 500..

Like spotlighting deer… :P

I believe that is just rape and turnips (??)

I wish it were that easy for quail or pheasant. I'd have bought 100 by now..

A tandem disc can keep the ground level, if setup correctly. A center sweep kit really keeps ridging to a minimum. As does making sure the front is buried slightly deeper so the rear outer discs don't create a heavy furrow. But a chain harrow with some weight would definitely smooth out if...

I'd be careful.. This year seems very much ahead of normal. Switch coming back here in mid MO is 2"+ high already.

Spot on - Impossible to control others (lack of) ethics.

This is getting into somewhat of a deep dive, but I think its important to note there are two different schools of thought when it comes to assessing soil for growth potential. One is strictly reading the soil test, and just addressing the levels of nutrients to reach sufficient needs for crop...

I broke down and bought a Stihl BR 800 C-E Magnum about 2 weeks ago ..after reading this d@mn thread. One of the best purchases I've made. Makes a park out of any trail or area you put it to use on :)

IMO - Depends on your goals. Just deer, or other wildlife as well? Deer hunting wise: - Place a few to create a pinch point near your blind. - Position some of them to screen your entry. Or burn them all and move on :)

Hard to say. My last photo of him was December 15th, checking a scrape. He did look like he lost weight, but all the other bucks did as well. Normal post rut type condition.. No ribs, etc showing. One of the more active bucks on our farm.
