    Which of these is the better choice?

    I have a Kubota L3400 that I have used on my acreage for quite a few years now and have been very happy with it. Almost entirely loader and snowblower work. Has never failed to start. With a fel you will definitely benefit from counter-wieghting as I soon found out. I had my rears filled with...

    What Do You Use for Canadian Thistle in the Yard

    Milestone is best. Will still require some persistence. GrazonNext is milestone and 2,4-D.

    REVISIT---spraying grass and weeds

    Just be aware that once you start spraying glyphosate(Rooundup is a brand) you can never stop. It is a contact killer only and weeds will flush with about every new rain. Works very well on grasses and most broadleaf weeds. There must be a label on the jug with mixing recommendations. With...

    Can anyone ID this plant?

    Deterring mice

    I use standard old mouse traps. I cram black sunflower seeds in each end of the curl of the bait holder. Works pretty well but nothing is 100% against the critters. I have used poison (ropax bars) nailed to a small chunk of 2x4 but seemed I was just feeding them or if it did kill them they...

    I should have said thank you before now, but I have always looked at and enjoyed your picture posts. The puzzles have also been fun and entertaining and I've much enjoyed them too.

    Spottiness of rain.

    I'm in far SW Boone County. The NWS reporting station is the Perry airport. It's incredible how it can vary that much in such small distances. I hope you get some rain real soon.

    Spottiness of rain.

    In my area of central Iowa, we had not received significant rain for at least a month and a half until last Sunday morning. That morning I had downpours that produced 2.2 inches in roughly an hour and a half. All the cracks sucked it up pretty well. The NWS reporting station just 2 and a half...

    Update on the weed

    Definitely hemp dogbane. Like canada thistle, persistence is required as no one-time application of herbicide will likely do the trick. Also, about all herbicides that affect this weed also will kill any legumes in the field or kill everything(Roundup/glyphosate). Had some in crop fields years...

    2020.04.18 Rust Pic

    Heh...considered a noxious weed in Iowa but it's ubiquitous anyway and most think of it as a wild flower. Also called wild carrot. And is that teasel in the upper right background? :)

    Running rough

    I have a Massey Ferguson MF20 industrial tractor with the Perkins gas motor. A couple weeks ago I had to replace the ignition coil and the distributor cap wires and points were changed about 4 months ago. It was running good up to a few weeks ago. I wasn't able to start it could the coil had...
