These learners are still alive with plenty of leaves within deer reach. They do become a food source, depending on verity when the leaves brown. Nature put them there. I just capitalize on the placement. No baiting of any kind.

I seen better heads on a glass of root beer!

One word of caution on alike clover, it becomes bitter and non pallet able upon maturity. Regrowth is slower and the plants much shorter on regrowth than red. All clovers need drainage, but can stand to get it's feet wet from time to time. PH on clovers, 5.8 or higher will do just fine. Clover was called the poor farmers crop because, it could be gro-wned on lower ground, with no lime and little fertiziler needed. The seed was also inexpensive, back in the day.

Yes I hunt on leaners, like six or so feet off the ground. Tipped out by the roots. . Some excellent opportunities too. Have a couple that I well anchored to other trees during certain times of season. Excellent , natural elevated stand.

Grow, do you ever set up your trail cam on some of those ponds? Get some pics and video?

Picks of your progress? Thanks in advance.

Any ideas on a prime suspect.

Yeah, she still " misses" me to find the remote.

Take way my car, take my house, hell take away the sweets, but know one better ever take away my Summit. I have the model with the rubber band foot holders. Sure was nice to update to the plastic foot holder. Only trouble I do have is their small for my boots. Made for small feet people or something. One word of caution though. Make sure tie a rope from the seat to the foot platform. I didn't, one day and was stuck in the tree for two days before the misses sent the dog out lookin for me.

Selling and price please.

Good year for growing vines. I don't remove all the grape vines, as some of my squirrel friendso use them for travel routes. They also serve to feed many wild birds and even deer, with their tasty treats. I also set aside spots for poison ivy as stated previously. I have a few vines, size of my wrist growing up a few trees. Wild Morning Glory are also, kinda nice. Vetch is a deer magnet. Night Shade is one vine, I try to eliminate.

Don't forget the sumac. Deer feed off the blossoms in late winter.

I have about 20 acres, that wasn't seeded for years. What the government calls wild hay. It has legumes, grasses, and some weeds. Deer & turkey have fed off these spots for years when fresh, through the spring and after the 1st hay is removed. I can use the new regrowth to draw the deer in for summertime observational purposes. Turkey come in , more for the jumpers, I believe. Woodcock are showing up more too. Better than trail cams, live action during peak nutritional growing stages. Everyone has stopped growing hay around me. It works quite effectively. I don't worry about a few weeds as they also have nutritional value. Oh and baleing the hay reaps it's benefits also, LOL.

If you lived in it year round, I'd go with the best. For just seasonal hunting use, go with roll fiberglass to meet code. You most likely dropped a good dime on the rest of he structure. Why spend the extra cash for a few weeks of use out of the year?

Next Book malfunction!

A wolf can do extensive damage to livstock. We don't want them, but it's already to late.

I don't like the risk involved in eating strange fungi. But if you know the edible types, enjoy! That sure is a purity one.

Radish came up good in some areas, others are poking through now with the rainfall that helped. Oats are poking through now too. Turkey fly out of their roosting tree right near the radish, then walk in. They made dusting bowls in one area, using them daily now. Don't seem to be eating the radish, but, they at nipping off the oats. I got some nice molting feathers under their roost trees. Taking pics, will post when I get a decent PC.

I would ajust. We don't have much choice in this state, do we?

Breeding in January and February; add 200 days, you can have fawns this time of year. Happens here, more than liked.

I have frost seeded on bare frozen ground, four inches of snow, and even during an ice storm. Success rate has been about the same. Nice stands. Now keep in mind, frost seeding in a cover crop tilled type cereal grains will do better protecting the young seedlings. I did frost seed with legumes on old run out hay seedings with fair success. The stands were thinner however. One does have to consider soil type to improve success rates. Lighter soil types, most likely will do better than heavier soil types such as clay loams in non till methods of frost seeding.

You bought some more land?

Still waiting for a summer. Heavy dews. The wild apples are full on the trees. Most are showing a nice pale red color. Some are falling daily, with deer coming in the evenings cleaning them up. Mature split husk hickory nuts are dropping. Oaks nuts are filling on the trees very nicely with few immature drops. Promising to be a very good crop. The inch rainfall in a heavy thunderstorm Tuesday evening give the growing a nice pickup. Last weeks plantings look very good. Nature is pumping in some great food sources from alsides for the first two weeks of doe season. This state AUT to take lessons.

It sure shows the lack of experience in NY. DEC. Doesn't it. No experience necesssary!
