Got some real poor clay spots that never grow much anyway so I worked it up.

Hauled in composted cow manure

Shoveled it out about 10-12" deep

Broadcast some oats, packed it, broadcast White Clover, repacked it and then dragged and old bedsprings over it

Now a little rain would be nice (or else I'm getting out the lawn sprinkler /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif)
 
She may have suggested a bucket of corn or something else less drastic. But I like the way you think. Just hope your wife does. /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif
 
Its easier to ask for forgiveness then it is to ask for permission. /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif
 
Shoot, she is probably so used to your antics by now that you might get a shrug out of her as she rolls her eyes! /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif
 
You are the only person I know that gets excited playing in a trailer of poo /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cool.gif /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif
 
I would imagine that she will actually be surprised that you didn't do the whole yard! /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

I didn't say I was done... &lt; /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

Besides I told her that I used "special" seed that would make our yard beaaauuutiful! /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif
 
Personally I think most of our wives must be pretty numb to all of this by now. I just don't like it when a bunch of them get together and start comparing behavior notes. It makes me want to head for the door.

At least the whole yard is "green" now /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

I used Welter's White Clover treated with Apron. Looking good so far.
 
I love it when a plan comes together! /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cool.gif

They are gobbling up those oats right now! Pic is thru the window so it's not the greatest...but living in the country sure is!! /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif
 
Nice "herd"! /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cool.gif That's great, those honeys are sure to drag a buck in there before long!
 
Notice the title of the thread...

I hope that wasn't the set you were using.
She might notice but I think she has decided to put up with it a looong time ago. What more could you want in a yard?
 
If I lived there you wouldn't have many deer coming to yard by January, because they would all be in the freezer /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif
So how many yards is it to the food plot, looks like muzzleloader range!! /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

My mom won't let me or my dad shoot the does that come in our yard, but if we go down over the hill we can shoot them, doesn't make much sense /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif
