Post your crimson pics from last year. Magazine worthy

What if you just didn't do anything to the Crimson come fall? Would it die out over winter? Just not have palatability for season?

I am not a hippie but just napalm spraying my only timber and all of the critters inside of it in Oct/Nov just seems weird to me.

yes sir! And any trail or opening you cut, they will use heavy!

If the clover is thick it wont work. Now planting fall brassicas into a good seed bed with clover seed mixed in your brassica seed WILL give you a magazine cover type clover plot the following spring. I know that's not your question, but your best bet may be to kill the dying clover you have...

It seems like everyone says they're really bad this year, for the last 5 years... Why the increase in ticks?

Have a similar situation with bush honeysuckle. It is wildly overwhelming and doesn't lay out where a mulcher or machinery of sorts would be an effective play. I also don't like the idea of aerial spraying, and going into your timber in Oct isn't an option, so winter/early spring has been our...

Looking good!

A lot are producing based off of the caps on the ground. I like your thinking though, never crossed my mind. I'm going to start keeping tabs on them, thanks!

The first year, not until they were fairly mature around the first half of October. The second year for me always seems like the browse is an issue from the time they germinate. Almost like they're ready for them the second go around.

I have done it with success, but in great soil. Surely there would be a diminishing return in more marginal ground without some inputs added year 2

Haha yep bingo

No, but once in a while you will get one with thinner foliage and bucks will tickle it. Most are too thick for them to want to stick their heads in but it does happen sometimes.

Don't tube conifers. They'll live for a few years but won't work long term. Cage conifers

Nailed it. I will post a video in the next couple of days. Have rain coming and plan to do some more then!

Pulling them straight up and out by hand.

If it's for for rec ground, what's the issue?

Nothing too complicated that most guys on here don't already know. It was at rock bottom and had been abused for years, so it was only uphill from where it was. The place had the "bones" to be awesome, just needed love and basic management 101 Thickened up the timber, put in a lot of year...

Seems like the ones in the lower areas have shallower roots and will pluck much larger than ones in open clay areas. Trial and error!

That time of year again! Transplanted around 60 last night and this morning with plans to do more this week. Filling in empty pockets in a 10 acre pure switch field I have that, unfortunately, the deer do not bed in like I hoped. Cedars should do the trick long term!
