did it last year bought a bag of ladino white clover on amazon went a bit heavier then what the bag said per acre... I only did about a half acre but basically i just threw it on as soon as there was bare ground i think it was late march came in great, the area i planted was brassicas the fall before and the deer had really pawed up the ground , no equipment really need just a hand spreader.... Just to note the deer did use the clover but nothing like the WI clover i have

opinions on this parcel of land for hunting?

db I agree 100% but if you dont own the land and National Grid does own it and wont have anyone come out and sign complaint for trespass what is ECO going do...Just what happened where I was hopefully it will work out good luck goosifer nothing better then having your own property -

goosifer unless your getting a good price that will be a total pain in the back side, I recall one guy would walk the power line every am and pm just about every day of the season, I get the land owner didnt own the land but National grid piece was like 50 or 70 yrds wide they gut would shoot at anything on the edge, and if he didnt drop it the deer would end up dead on the hunting property...... -

I would check that the gas lines and power lines are just right of ways and not owned by the company hunted a piece of land where the power line property it was actually owned by National Grid and they would not do anything to keep people off, and since it was not actually owned by land owner had people walking the line all the time and there was nothing that could be done -
yeah i dont even have a clue how to get it from phone to my very old lap top lol...but thanks for the info maybe ill see what the gf can do

So Im thinking of trying to plant dunstan chestnuts this year/spring but the trees are not cheap... was thinking maybe of doing them from seed does anyone know where i can get dunstan nuts/seed i see regular american chestnut seed but i thought they get blight and die... any advise would help i know if i start from seed will take longer to establish but yearling trees are like 20 -25 bucks, and they are not guarented to make it... any thoughts or info would be great thanks
