I am getting ready to weed kill my field that im gonna be planting apple Trees in, how long should I wait after I weed kill before planting the apple trees?
Who tee who the youtuber gave your product big raves. So I tried some this spring to see if it's realy assaid.. I normaly buy the seed in bulk i want and make my own mix as just what your saying has been aissue with me..
@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 i did a field of oats this year hopping to support our local bird population.. most likely i'll just cut it late and let nature take it place.. The oler guy that use to rent our feilds for his cows now has reach the age he can't do it any more. so i'm not sure what i going to do with the 35 acures at this point. maybe another farmer will take the fields and rent them. whom knows at this point.
@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 it was mainly the ryegrass that made me step on the breaks. There was a very low percentage of actual "food" I ended up buying oats and clover from the feed store. Had a great season too
Another trick is seed companies saying they have a proprietary seed. One company that is owned by a habitat consultant has a type of corn that is higher in carbs,sugars and protein they tout as such. You can do a google search and find it is not proprietary.
Hi Shawn! I like wheat...I like rye better tho for a few reasons. BUT, often folks can't find rye but they can find wheat...or the other way around. I like using 1 or the other tho...they are so close to each other. Rye is for poor soil poor oh...wheat needs good soil, decent pH. Kind of like a Norway spruce and white spruce comparison. White spruce grows in any soil, bad or good and in full shade. Norway needs full sun and better soil, better pH. Bottom line I like them both 😊
We used your EZ no till strategy last season on a 1/2 acre plot with good results. This year we are going to try the Ultimate no till. Would you recommend trying to divide a small plot like that or should we just plant your green blend on the whole 1/2 acre and top dress with rye later? I know you usually do half brassica half green blend and rotate. Thanks in advance. We appreciate all of the information you share with everyone.
@@timhatfield6367 the good thing is you can spray the en thing switch with Simazine. Only bad thing is that if switch is up...so are the weeds that Simazine would have killed if sprayed before they popped up. So a waste of money at that point...
@Ben Borgschatz you can spray that mix on switchgrass seed...not the switchgrass once it's germinated. If you planted this year, you should be good to spray until mid May or so depending on where you are located. After that, mow if you have a weekly issue. If you still have a broadleaf weed problem, you can spay 2-4D late in the summer, once your switchgrass has at least four leaves.
Any experience in wolf territory? Do you find they are less predictable? Mature big woods bucks in heavy wolf territory, maybe the hardest thing to get close to imo. Any changes to your food plotting strategy?
Hi Keith! Larger plots and edges that aren't as thick (more of a filtered look) are critical. Bigger, less confining bedding areas and rarely any hinge cuts unless for screening access of a stand, as deer do not like to be near habitat they can't see into or thru. Absolutely zero gas machine access. Think BIG movement. Often morning bedding areas and stand locations are back on public land somewhere... The opposite of northern OH, and then a sliding scale of bigger and less confining...along with more food...the more remote and wilderness.
Great information... learned so much !
Thanks a lot!
Thanks for your patience with this vid! It's all together now 😁 Ha, false alarm!

Trees in, how long should I wait after I weed kill before planting the apple trees?
Excellent video and advice, like the last one the best, big buck on the package, my LOL moment of the day.
Lol moment...I like that 😁

I bought a bag of throw and grow and was literally 2 days from planting when one of your other videos popped up and saved my @$$
Dang well that's good Ron! How did that label look? I'm sure lots of ryegrass but I'm curious if anything else stuck out?

Looking forward to getting seed shipped and getting to work! Appreciate WHS team!
We appreciate you Hunter! That will ship tomorrow for you 😊 Likely get it by Wednesday? Thank you!
Good vid!
Thanks a lot Thomas!
Always educational!!!
Thanks Anthony!
Thank you for the research, the hard work applied, and the 120% seed ratio… I’ll round up! Thank you Jesus!
You are very welcome Naomi 😊
Hey jeff can you use other grasses like grass seed to plant instead of rye grass for the paths to your stand.
You sure can...it's really the same thing! We have several in our mix...
Kinda like our 10%ethanol in our gasoline..
Lots of good points found Here! 👏
As usual...
Thanks a lot Tim...so much to cover!

For sure Rene...typically a variety of popcorn, actually 😊
No more winter wheat ???

I think something spooked him but I knew he’d be back (hungry)
Crazy ..only 60% of the vid was there...not sure why. Sorry about that!
Jeff, is it too late to spray switchgrass with simazine in SE MN?
Hi Ben! It is...unless a newly worked field? But just getting to that time for a good 2-4D and Gly spraying. I will be spraying that in about a week.
@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 ok, thank you. 2 quarts per acre for glyphosate and 1 pint per acre for 2-4d for spraying over switchgrass?
My soon to be 3 year old switch is 3"-4" tall now , here in north central Indiana, so make sure yours is not up..... Just thinking

There definitely is some shady companies selling some crappy stuff out there!!
For sure Brian! The list is loooong...
