Hard to believe a 2.5 gallon jug is equivalent to 1 ton of ag lime. Saw one vid that said it only moved his PH .1% Of course you have to assume the person did his soil testing correctly and applied the product properly. Most of the more scientific vids/articles I saw and read about so called...

I have been watching Youtube vids from Whitetail Habitat Solutions. While his vids are long winded and he seems to contradict himself quite often I have been enjoying his take on using buckwheat as a cover crop. He seeds into the standing buckwheat and crushes it with a packer and then sprays...

Life has had me pretty busy and have not been to the old farm in months. I am sure there might be some clover hiding in the endless sea of weeds and old rye. I picked up Big-N-Beasty brassica as the seed that I have been purchasing from the local seed place has never really grown and in many...

A friend on my hill hit this 7pt late afternoon but was unsure of his shot. So he did the "when in doubt back out". The next morning we set out and when I saw and heard the crows and ravens I told him I had a bad feeling. When we saw the immature eagle fly off out of a tree I knew it was going...

Thinking of switching over to micro SD cards with adapter for trail cams so I can view them via a tablet I have that only views micro cards. Now I run my cams with pic and vid usually 20 second vid clips. What size micro SD and speed is best for this? One miro sd card I picked up from SanDisk...

Had a field that was a mud hole last year and I gave up on it as the tractor was sinking. I just put the disc and the spring tooth chisel plow to it today to hack it up and level it out. Given we are at Oct 1st tomorrow is it to late to get any growth? Thanks

My property has become a dead zone, not a single buck pic the entire summer or early fall. Finally got a spike, a four and this guy a few days ago. Of course all nocturnal. . I know judging from the back is one of the hardest. I'm thinking he has a thin rack, but just outside the ears on...

In 2015 I planted Brassicas and although I was late getting them in they did germinate and I did get small radishes and turnips. In 2016 I was so late due to equipment issues I skipped the brassicas. Had five ton of lime dropped in this one plot as the PH was in the 4's. I have not had another...

My neighbor got this trail pic of a small black bear and for the life of us we cannot figure out what is going on. He thinks the bear laid on some animal carcass and it has gotten stuck in the bears coat. He thinks he even sees an animals head on the bears back. I asked him if he started...

As I reclaim an old field I have found some apple trees and as I venture further into the hawthorne surrounding the field I have found several more. On a few I cut down the surrounding saplings or hawthorne that were crowding them or shading them out. In one case I simply pushed over the...

Looking for ideas/pictures on how you guys store/hold things on your tractors while working on your properties. From holding drinks (my magnetic holder broke in week), chainsaw, gas line trimmer. Given I will have something attached on the 3 point a box attached to it is not an option. Is it...

Recently I hogged a field I call #4 and while doing it I discovered two apple trees I never new existed. I have hardly spent any time in this field since purchasing the property. If it were not for the apples I would never have known that they were there. They are small trees. Well today I...

So I have been on the hunt for a spring tooth chisel plow, but anything that had a good price was gone before I got there and everything else was more then I wanted to spend. So I have run across two that are in my price range but are a seven hour round trip. One is like OkieKubota's which has...

I briefly touched upon this topic last year on the other site but got side tracked. Given my tax burden on my 150 acres I am interested in enrolling it into the program. I spoke with a guy who formulates forestry plans that gets submitted to the DEC some weeks ago, but he is now telling me that...

Not a single deer was taken on my side of the hill, not a one. My gun club that has 3,800 acres under lease which consists of one 3,200 acre parcel and one 600 acre parcel has only given up 9 bucks that we know of. Club rules are no does. My 150 acres looked encouraging based on the number of...

A buddy of mine just sent this to me. He said it came into a local butcher and the guy said he took it on his free ranging private land in the NE PA. Now I know there are always a few that manage to evade every hunter and grow, but I am skeptical about this one. If the story said it came from...

I am thinking 120 Thanks

First, I am not a computer person and when people talk in computer jargon it matter as well be Chinese as it outside my comprehension level. Second, I have gone from a Blackberry to a flip phone and am happier. So that should put things into perspective with what your dealing with. I have a...
