I am looking at having RDH outdoors build me a JD 7100 style 2 or 3 row no till corn planter. What all options are worth the extra money and why? Do I need spiked closing wheels? Seed firmers? Row cleaners? Should I have the drawbar filled with peagravel for extra down pressure? (I have a 100HP...

Due to poor soil quality my brassicas have never grown that well, but are doing better this year than they ever have. My concern is the under ground growt of the actual fruit seems to be very little. I am only seeing tiny radishes and turnips. I applied 150lbs per acre of urea a couple weeks ago...

I have let 15 gallons of roundup or so sit in my 3pt sprayer for a couple of months, I hope this stuff isn't too corrosive? Obviously the sprayer is plastic though. Anyway, I need to spray my pond bank, and a few various places with 2-4D. What is the best way to confirm I get all the roundup...

have some brassicas just popping out of the ground and some a couple inches tall that are begging for fertilizer. Am I going to be ok driving over my plots to spread? I can spread a decent width so it's not like I will be driving over everything

my brassica plots were put in Monday, didn't have a chance to spread fertilizer, so planning to do it before another good rain here soon. Do you guys go by the LC mix recommendation? His numbers definitely seem like they are high, but I am not an expert so I can't really criticize. Have about...

Planted my brassicas (welter seed big buck brassica mix) today, august 28. Some rain expected this week and the soil is moist. Hoping they will do well. Last year everything germinated but no rain so they didn't do much. If need be I'll over seed with rye at some point.

a bit late getting my brassica plots ready, but getting ready to spray roundup on the weeds and grasses that are there now, how long do I wait until I disc and prep the seedbed after I spray?

I am looking for the 5x5 trophy tower. What is the best price you guys have seen? My dealer said he will beat any price I can find so I was hoping someone would help me out! Thanks

as mentioned before, I have a spotty corn patch with some decent corn. I have not fertilized it and I know it needs something. I have roughly an acre or so, part of which I'm going to be planting brassicas so I will be adding nitrogen for them anyway, would it be ok to broadcast spread some urea...

for the first time ever, after several failed attempts I've got a decent corn stand but have some very large bare spots I'm going to plant brassicas in. I need to kill the weeds first to do so. How close can I spray roundup to my corn, it is not in rows, but broadcasted.

I am looking for a heavy duty spreader to pull behind my ATV. John Deere/frontier makes one, the 1022SB, and it is also available rebranded as "tar river implements" its $550 and seems like it would be worth if from the pictures I've seen. Tartar and king kutter also have a spreader that looks a...

I am going to plant oats for the first time. I have not had a soil test done, but this particular field is just grass now, and has not ever been planted in anything to my knowledge. I am liming 2 tons to the acre this week, and before I plant I will spray gly on the entire field to kill...

I've got around 25 acres on the back side of my farm that my farmer cuts for hay. There is a good bit of broomsage and stick weed, so once the farmer cuts it for hay here in about 3 weeks, I will let the weeds grow for a week or 2, then get the local co op to come spray an herbicide such as...

Guys- Would like to plant 20 trees this year, help me pick them! requirements-I will plant and tube the trees, and that is really all I would like to do...I know nothing about gafting, pollinating, etc.. also would like them to produce relatively fast, if possible? I am in central VA, and would...

I have a plot that time has simply not allowed me to get planted. I would like to have it planted by October 15, with winter rye, winter wheat and some oats. Am I wasting my time here? Would love to hear some input!

My brassica patch is suffering, planted in august and just now getting rain...its starting to come up but lots of large bare spots. I broadcasted some oats, winter rye and winter wheat in these spots, on top of bare dirt. We are expecting an inch of rain over the next couple of days...Any chance...

After a good rain, I am having more growth than expected, but what's with these holes in the leaves?

Due to no rain, brassicas didn't grow. So I'm going to try this on 2-1 acre food plots 1.5 bushel of winter rye, 1.5 bushel of wheat, and 1.5 of oats. and throw a little rape and turnip in also Any opinions on this? I had originally thought of doing just 1 bag of each, but this may not be...

As noted in another post, i planted the LC brassica mix on august 7, it was coming up good for a couple weeks, then no rain until this week, so all that good growth is gone. Checked on it today...lots of these..Are they just weeds?-they are thorny If so I am going to just broadcast some winter...

planted the LC brassica mix August 7, it was starting to come up, but no real rain until now... Late September. Any chance it will still come up or do you guys think it all sprouted and died from no rain? Just my luck! The pic is from August 25, if it shows io
