I found link below. Lots of “reasons” for less seed in the bag. http://static.squarespace.com/static/5150d703e4b00303002ee6db/t/51f2dd27e4b049481db63d22/1374870823541/Groundhog%20with%20Pinnacle%20QS.pdf Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum

For the past several years, I’ve bought a 50lb bag of groundhog radish to use in the Knox brassica and cereal mixes. This year, I noticed the seed had a pink coating on it. I assume they are charging the same now for less seed, and now it throws off the lb/acre I had been accustomed to, but by...

Thanks for your advice and sharing your method! Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum

We haven’t sprayed any gly on the plots in the last five years because our tiller turns over mowed ground well without needing a kill. But we have routinely needed to spray our rock covered parking area to prevent it from looking like a lawn. In doing that, I have found gly resistant marestail...

We weren’t well prepared this year. We didn’t mow at all this year and sprayed a good dose of gly onto relatively tall weeds that had taken over the spent rye mix and spent brassica mix plots since spring. Here’s a photo of one of the plots as I was spraying. Here is photo (sorry, blurry)...

I haven’t tried 24D yet but it might be the best option to try, thanks. This is my first year trying no till and haven’t needed/wanted such a complete burndown before because usually tilled. Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum

We have been using the LC rotation for years and want to now try doing that with a no till drill. This year I burned down the plots with gly (with ams) a day before planting the brassicas on 8/11. Planning to plant my version of the cereal mix (rye, wheat, awp, gfr, clover) Labor Day weekend...

We have a construction trailer we remodeled into a cabin including bathroom and kitchen and bunk bed rooms on opposite ends. Dream lodge plans below. Plumbing is all centralized and easy to drain to utility room at the end of the weekend. Also want a scent free locker room next to garage...

I think your plan to overseed will work okay. I would overseed in September. We use the LC rotation. We mow rye then till it under to plant the brassica half in early August. It ends up being mostly a solid stand of brassicas with some volunteer rye as far as you can tell in the fall. But...

We had a similar situation. We got a truckload of softball sized rock delivered. Took a while but we set it in the ruts. Now even if it’s wet/muddy we drive the ruts and have solid rock to drive on a few inches down. Just keep to the ruts where the rock is. In one spot where it was really...

Is yours the 3pt model too? I want to buy a 3P606NT and my only concern is the ground clearance when lifted (crossing creeks, water bars on roads). I’ve seen photos like below where the clearance looks ok, but I’ve seen a few vids on YouTube where the closing wheels almost drag on the ground...

Thanks! Beginners luck! And blessed with good soil and timely rain Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum

Sounds like I’m not far from you, north of Lewistown. I tried renting the Truax drill in Monticello last year but the weather didn’t work out. Do I remember correctly you have a no till drill? I’m considering getting a 3P606NT Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum

Very interesting thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum

Interesting ideas! Thanks! I haven’t thought about a weed wiper before. Would be nice to avoid the gly mist in the air. Do you think the wiper would be as effective? Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum
