here is the first one, found right on the edge of most ditches but on drier ground and the 2nd one is found in the low areas, often flooded, poorly drained I know very little about grasses, but these 2 are fairly abundant on my property. If beneficial would be intersted in gathering seed and...

So last Saturday, Nov 23rd, after my morning hunt decided to get on our new tractor and play. Our muzzleloader season started late sept so our season is winding down. I was preparing for an elk hunt in colorado so didnt get to use all our plots this fall. Of the plots we did have, the wheat was...

Taking my first trip out west with my brother in law. So far planning to head to north central colorado to hunt the 2nd rifle season with OTC bull elk tags (gonna put in for draw hunts, but no preference points. Looked at the hunting atlas and lots of online resources. Any tips on hunting a new...

So pictured is a Deer that i believe has been on my farm from 2016 til 2018 when he moved from my farm to my freezer. I am attaching some pictures from 2016 and 2018. I am not 100% sure it is the same deer, (if not it may be father and son). Gvie me your thoughts, same deer? age? 2016

Southeastern NC zone 7B. Working from east to west I have 1/2 white clover, 1/4 chicory and red clover plot, 1/4 spent turnips plot, 1/2 Paul knox mix, 1/4 wheat and red clover. I have cleared 4 new clearings in the back (west end of my farm) closest to my sanctuary. They are in a K shape with a...

So the last 2 years we have added 10 acres to the south line both years. We have yet to use that area as anything except for a sanctuary. Now that we have noticed more trails migrating towards to the south. We want to get some stand set up for hunting the south line on a north wind. Here is...

So our south property line is getting bulldozed 10ft wide 1000 yds long. Technically the path will be about 15 ft inside the line so that I have a tree line for stands and a buffer around the property. This should be happening in the next 2 weeks which is plenty of time for me to get it planted...

I have 35 acres in NC. Our muzzleloader season starts sept 30. I have been trying for 2 years to get the forest service to our farm to bulldoze the border as a fire break and to make access easier. They called today and are able to get it done. They give preference to the larger tracts, in their...

Picked up 3 chinese chestnut for 15$ a piece. Had to ask for discount, but manager knocked half off to get ride of them. Picked up some more pears and apples as well half off.

What is your process for preparing the ground for planting bareroot seedlings in the spring? Last spring I weed whacked an area about 4x4, put down some mats and put some in tubes, and some got both. Many of the ones without tubes accidentally got sprayed because the grass and weeds had grown up...

So I have a 1/2 acre kill plot that last year was brassicas with crimson clover and rye mixed in. The front half canopied and smothered out the rye and clover. The back half had plenty of rye and clover left to grow and make a decent spring plot. I planned to let this plot become a perennial...

When I first saw it I thought elderberry, then i thought maybe dogwood. But leaves are opposite and elongate. Pictures below. Green stem and brown bark are same plant, green is branched off main trunk just below picture Any ideas?

Was to hot to be carrying the saw around so I sharpened the ax and machete, grabbed a squirt bottle and started looking for sweetgums and red maples. After pine trees, those 2 make up the majority of my canopy trees. However, the more I walk around the more oak regeneration I notice. Oaks are...

I have a small creek to cross to reach the back 1/3rd of my property. The creek itself is only 4 or 5ft wide at most places. The creek bottom is fairly firm as most mud gets washed away. However, the 15 ft on each side of that is flat muddy slop. Just walking through it my boots sink 4-5". All...

Found just off a creek bottom, nothing but shrubs and pine trees around. Never saw it flower but it looks mature. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

According to USDA, browse preference is medium, protein quantity is low. I haven't seen much browse by deer, but honestly I don't have much experience with it in a woods setting. I have access to about 20 seedlings that are perfect transplant size at home and debating where to put them. Anyone...

What would your ideal farm look like if you have to manage it to maximize both deer and turkey success. Not worried about harvest ability of each species. Purely how would you attract and sustain a maximum population of BOTH deer and turkey. 50 acre farm surrounded by diverse habitat with mix of...

I have 2 clover plots that have a dry side and a side that stays wetter. I wanted to overseed or mow down the rye nurse crop over the top of some chicory seed on the dry side of these small plots. Has anyone had experience using chicory frost seeding, broadcasting, or throw and mow over it? pH...

Trees come in, look great with lots of roots but I cant plant until saturday. How would you store plants? I have them in a bucke in a cool garage with most of the roots underwater. Should i put them in the fridge after soaking until planting? Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
