    Thorny tree

    I don't have any pics right now but this tree looks just like Tree of Heaven (which I know well) but it has thorns. Any thoughts?

    Shrub in W PA

    I was stuck in traffic and looked out the side and saw a row of these shrubs with what appears to be mast of some sort. Is this hazelnut? I don't think it is. So what is it? Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    Holy sweet clover, batman!

    I assume this is sweet clover. We drove from Pa to Montana and the farther west we got, the more wide spread the stuff was. It seems like cattle eat it because in pastures with cattle the stuff was well controlled, but just over the fence, it was a thick monoculture. Apparently, the wild...

    Raptor (Imazamox herbicides) and rain

    I've read about as much of the extensive Raptor herbicide label as my brain can digest and I realize it's rain fast in an hour, but can it be sprayed on wet weeds that have been rained on (as opposed being wet from dew, if that matters)? Seems like our weather pattern brings the next rain...

    Small tree, showy white flowers

    Good, bad, or neutral? I've just started noticing this in my area in the last few years. I have only 1 of them on my acreage, but I see a lot of them within a mile or so. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    Locating wild apples and crabs on your property

    The flowering period is a great time to locate wild mast trees. In our area, we are in the peak season for apple, crab, Hawthorn, and Dogwood blooming. We are slightly past the pear bloom. Depending on your latitude, you may be already past the bloom stage and in other more Northerly areas, it...

    Early-growth pics of PIA

    Just thought I would share some pics of pains in the ass at early growth stage. It might help someone to deal with a problem before it gets out of control. Its too late here.

    Staghorn Sumac

    For anyone looking to add some early succession trees, think about some staghorn sumac. In every place that I've ever seen it growing, its a buck magnet for rubs. This patch I have has several dozen trees. I don't think there is a single tree that hasn't been rubbed. There's no way pics can do...

    Treehopper drills

    Just a heads up... Treehopper drills are available again and they are top quality. If you use screw-in steps, you should look in to bolts. You'll throw those crappy Ameristep screw-ins into the trash.
