Free flowers, if anyone wants seeds to give to their wife/girlfriend for their flower garden. Very hardy, grow anywhere in height from ground level to 6’-7’, some single stem some multiple stemmed. Short ground huggers stay green all winter. Nice pretty purple flowers that turn white, fluffy & cottony where they die. Some are even 2-4-D resistant.

You can keep them, just got through spraying 35 gallons of 24d and roundup on them today.

Noxious weed here to, these are just the ones that I missed with Grazon Next. I already went thru 2-1/2 gallon of it early on. Mixing @ 3/4 pint 4 gallon water, putting thru a backpack sprayer. Between planting & being out in the truck I thought better make another sweep. I have more to get to it tomorrow after I finish up planting. I told a guy I would keep an eye on his CRP him. I just haul them to the field edge, pile, add diesel & a match.

I used 2-4d shredder last year & may as well of fertilized them. This Grazon Next put the ones I sprayed down, got the Canadians also.

A guy stopped me this afternoon while I was planting and asked me if he could land a helicopter in the yard.

Cut 12 acres of weed and trash hay today so it can get the rain that we are getting now. Might even bale it if rain quits by morning.

 

[Only the Tony]

Probably ran a little later than I should have tuesday night but got it done before rain wednesday morning. Cut neighbors field too with hopes of getting extra hay, but with the amount of junk weeds I found when cutting it will go away and pay for some more net wrap. And for fixing tire I put a hole in with a piece of cow bone under the grass.

 

[Cat 525]

That flat tire sucks! Ain't cheap to fix anymore!

So I took a ride this afternoon to check the soybean field out that got planted at a lower Then desired rate. I think they’re going to be just fine.
