    Favorite Fall Brassica?

    groundhog/daikon radishes are a hit on my place. They're usually mowed down before winter and long gone before spring planting. It's not uncommon for them not to make it past September some years.

    Honeysuckle??

    Can't tell if that's honeysuckle or coralberry. I'd guess that honeysuckle should be starting to leaf out already, so I'd go with coralberry.

    Acorns to Oaks!

    I've noticed that, which makes sense since a larger acorn has more energy to throw at a growing seedling. Of course genetics also play a factor to coincide with acorn size.

    Cash rent farmer

    I'd call that a fair deal for both parties.

    Cash rent farmer

    Do they pay for the improvements on your farm along with the cash rent, or do you mean you cut the cash rent price when improvements are made by the tenant?

    Land prices / insane!!!

    That can squeeze a lot of farmers since cash rent rates don't follow the commodity price trends. Most landowners aren't going to start taking less when the commodities halve in price.....

    Be interesting to see what the old Bill Winke farms sells for this time around....

    The dbltree challenge

    I found them much more attractive by drilling holes in them to secure with zip ties like the rest of the tubes....while also getting a larger diameter tube out of the effort also. Still in use today on my place from over 10 years ago, where some of the rest have become brittle and are falling...

    Land prices / insane!!!

    If it's all cash, there's no end in sight.

    Land prices / insane!!!

    Using the $$$ as it was intended….. I’d like to know how much of that $$ didn’t go to the workers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Land prices / insane!!!

    It’s just seems as if we’re about to this point in the market, but maybe there isn’t a ceiling to be had…. Are a majority of these farms being bought without a loan? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Coyote dogs and Private Land Deer Hunting.

    That's why I gave it up personally. There's plenty of times they get out of the box searching. Some dogs will go a mile or 2 to get treed.

    Coyote dogs and Private Land Deer Hunting.

    I've walked by deer bedded within 100 yards of treeing coon dogs. One time there was a gobbler in the same tree the dogs put a coon up in. A half mile isn't anything for most hounds to go. Granted I don't think coon dogs have near the same intrusion factor as coyote dogs do in the daytime if...

    Apple/Pear Trees

    It's a "keeper" apple where it lasts after dropping till July. I'm not certain on the month that it drops.

    Apple/Pear Trees

    This is going to be a fun one to watch in the coming years. Was able to secure some scions of this once thought extinct apple. I can't imagine an apple that's edible in December lasting till July.... It should make for a great late season food source...

    Tree ID in winter

    Apps and books are a great place to start, but nothing works as well as boots on the ground applying that knowledge to learn the trees.

    Hickory woodlot

    I've used parking lots where oak varieties are growing that I'm interested in. The acorns fall on the asphalt, and I sweep those up into buckets on heavy producing years. Another option I've used is to spray roundup around an oak tree in spring/summer to kill off the vegetation that I want to...

    Multiflora rose and bush honeysuckle

    If that were my situation, I'd spray the MFR when it's blooming using a dye in the sprayer with roundup to confirm all plants have been treated. It's easy to miss some walking around the woods. I'd go hit the BH this spring with roundup when it has more vegetative growth than the natives...

    My little project this year. 500 acre farm with zero deer

    What a project! As close to a blank slate as anyone can get today. Planting any shrubs/trees on the farm?
