    following year sorghum - how to handle

    Thank you very much. We had a very warm spell so I brush hogged it one day. I wish I had a drill but I do not so the following day I rototilled it. The old stalks were tough and the root systems were larger than I expected. I am going to need to do it again before reseeding with a short...

    following year sorghum - how to handle

    Thank you very much. Great boots on the ground info. I had suspected I needed to cut it early but this confirms that thought. With the warm spell I was able to get it down. I don't replant (with short term clover/oat mix) until May so I have almost 60 days for it to break down.

    following year sorghum - how to handle

    Last year I had my first successful sorghum plot. This upcoming July, I am rotating in my brassicas/cereal grain mix into this old sorghum plot. Until July, I want to plant a spring mix of oats and crimson or red clover. It seems there are a lot of folks who plant sorghum for pheasants and I...

    2015 Ruffed Grouse Society Pennsylvania Forecast

    Good stuff. In some places I heard a good amount drumming during spring turkey season. In other places...not so much. However, I can report that there is a solid woodcock population this year in the places I explore in Northcentral PA. I have 2 pairs just around camp and I hear others in our...

    Bike-N-Run with the dogs.

    I like it. Gosh it looks all original. Not only do those old bikes not go up the hills as fast as they used to but I also think the hills get steeper every year too. lol. For one of my bikes I have added bags on the rear, headlamps, and painted it camo. Its now my turkey hunting machine.
