    Update on Thistle spraying

    A few days ago I posted that I was going to spray some thistles. I went over and checked them and most were brown with a few yellow so I guess I got them some. Now in July after they (if any, and I figure there will be some) grow back after the first cutting of hay in that field, I'll spray...

    Vibrating vest

    Thanks a bunch guys for the encouraging words. I had my 2 first 1/2 hour sessions yesterday. The therapist that fitted me said that it will take a few days to see any improvement with the vest so here's hoping

    Vibrating vest

    I guess today I will be fitted for a vibrating vest to help my lungs clear. I'm told they work really well to get the crap broken up and out of there. With any luck it just might help me breathe better so I can continue to make hay this year again. According to my latest CT scan I have...

    2 4 D mixing

    I ended up just putting 15 gaL on the thistle area and went outside the area as well just in case. I made 2 passes so I should have wetted it down pretty good. Now wait and see if it kills it or makes it grow LOL. I don't have any clover in that field just orchard grass. so I should be good...

    2 4 D mixing

    Thanks so much, that's what I was wanting to know. I'll mix it tomorrow and hopefully get rid of some thistles. This will probably be my last year farming at all unless I can get to feeling better. Thinking seriously about having an auction and selling everything, but then I wonder what I...

    2 4 D mixing

    I probably will not use it all on that field but I need to probably use that much as there are some other fields I need to spot spray some in . The mixture is what I'm really needing. I don't want to put too little mixture on nor do I want to overkill a whole bunch. It's about 3 miles over...

    2 4 D mixing

    This may sound completely stupid, but up to and including last year a good friend of mine that had his applicators license would do any spraying I needed done. I know I don't need a license and I've read the folder on the jug, but for the life of me I cannot find how much 2 4 D to mix with60...

    Welding rods left out in the rain

    Years ago when I was learning to weld we used bare rod, no flux at all. It sure taught me how to keep the right arc length. I probably couldn't do that today, it was about 60 years ago and now I'm 76 and have a hard time even seeing the weld area.

    My local feed mill

    At one time we had 4 mills here, now they are all gone and we have to travel around50 miles for an actual feed mill on one of the most dangerous roads US35 in West Virginia (lots of deer accidents). I was an Auctioneer on the last one to go out here in Pomeroy, Ohio when they sold out over 25...

    Spraying weeds with boom sprayer.

    I don't know what Scotch Broom is, but if it's like the broom grass we have here, you need to take some soil samples to your county agent and see how much lime you need to put on per acre and that will probably take care of it and make the whole 10 acres produce a lot better. You will probably...

    Lost my big 'ole' buddy

    I'm afraid I will be faced with the same thing in the very near future. Our old dog is getting to the point where she is having some trouble walking a lot. She has helped raise grand kids and great grand kids and is always excited to see them come around. She's 18 now so the time is near...

    Bought a couple of tools yesterday

    I never made a clamp, but I did make an anvil in welding school in the Army at Aberdeen proving Grounds in 1967. I still have it too

    My first fake money

    Years ago when we owned a small country store, we took a counterfeit 20.00. I took it to the bank and the manager told me to do what they do, pass it on to somebody else cause if they take it they would not give me my 20. back for it. I couldn't believe what she told me to do with it. I still...

    Drum mower question

    I agree, I've used drum mowers for several years. The key to mowing height is to set the mower level front to back and side to side. I have never had any problem mowing any type of hay .
