progress...

Took some pics lower Sb plot...they really are trying to survive the critters...even setting beans at 6" high...new trail PT plantings ...new area where I'm VERY LATE building a  12ft blind platform....Now it's just a wait and see holding pattern.....

I am a little envious of the sunshine your beans get and the space you have for them. Do they get hit into Oct?

is that milo or corn in the SB patch

Thirty seven inch beans are nothing to shake a yard stick at,  LOL.  They certainly have had the moisture thou. I don't see any cat tails. Mine are growing very nicely and are six foot tall. Of coarse, lying in water makes them grow well, year like this. Does make good bedding areas. I was suppose to be cutting hay on that field.  Can't even get into brush hog right now.

 

Is that legumes coming up in the last pic?

It rained 7 hrs the day before I took these pics...my poor sweet corn even thou put in late..earlier than last year...pretty much just stopped growing at 3ft No usually we get a frost by then...why normally I have good turnips or WR/clover in them but this year the turnips didn't take well down there.

 

That is reg feed corn they sell at TCF...I threw some seed out  to act as decoys to the turkey and crows from eating bean seed...I planted the rest of the corn at far end of field and along road side...they did get most of it...also those beans are RR and have been sprayed 3x's..

 

landtrac....I'm thinking it is purely the shape of plot that allowed the upper bean field to get that big...imagine how many deer pile on that lower field each night to get all of those beans so short...ones in the chestnut "seclusion " cage are 2ft tall...that field there, drains very well, eventually I want alfalfa in it. That is PT I planted in those trails
