This channel is dedicated to sharing land and wildlife management techniques for all outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you have 10 or 1000 acres these practices can be used to improve, conserve, and enjoy what each piece of land has to offer.
Thanks for sharing. I just planted clover grass seed in my backyard instead of the traditional Kentucky lawn. What herbicide can I buy to use to kill weeds in my newly planted Clover lawn?
What do you do when you clearcut like this, but all that comes in is a carpet of Japanese Stiltgrass? Killing it with glyphosate, it just comes back from the seeds, and it smothers all other regeneration except stump sprouts.
That's awesome! You mentioned selling them? I'm in southeast Iowa. Do you have a buyer I could contact? I'm sheared 24 acres and waiting for a mulcher to come and mulch the remaining 20 acres. I have a few slick back cedars that could be logged. My forester and others suggest I just remove the cedars and instead of marketing them. I burned 6 acres this spring and there's not much left except cedar logs! Good early successional starting to pop up! The 24 acres I sheared I'm planning to burn this year waiting for contractor to come in and put in damn good firebreaks. I've put in quite a few in my normal timber but this 24 acres is a matchbox and want a permanent firebreak I can maintain every year. Love the stuff you guys put out keep up the good work!!
Love it. That was a mistake I made a few years ago. Had a fella log black locust and I didn't realize the locust response 😅so hack n squirt this summer boys!
This was also the most effective video on demonstrating safe and effective management of fire as well as how to get the best fire effects for management goals! Great work
Do you have any videos on what happened over the past few years? You are probably due for another burn soon. Esp to knock back the invasive vines. It is weird being in a class (hardwood management) where we are learning about oak regeneration and you are talking about killing your precious oak regen. That is what we need more than ever
Im gonna do this on an 1/4 acre with a weed eater and backpack sprayer, i was wondering of y'all limed it ( soil test) and I was also wondering if spraying early in spring and planting buckweat for a few months then laying it down and spraying it would help with weeds and nutrients and give does and fawns some diversity in summer, my land is more narly than yours, i have alot of thick stalk weeds and briars, briars are more in patches tho, its so thick the bucks push does in here in the rut to corner them, i just want a kill plot close to stand cause they never really use the land the same all the time
SPOT ON BROTHER! Been saying this for years. I remember being a kid back in the 70's-80's and going fishing at the local creek. In the quarter mile walk to the creek you could catch enough crickets or hoppers to fish all day. I can't tell you the last time I saw two grasshoppers in the same day.
I mow my clover plot once a month in the summer.. It doesn't stop the weeds, i have used Arrest Max and that doesnt kill the weeds. I have resorted to picking / pulling weed roots ... I havent spot treated with glyphosate yet but its a great idea. Its November 29th in the Northeast and the deer are still in my clover..
It depends on your definition of what the techniques are. The regenerative food plots are leading to lots of weeds resulting in very low quality food plots therefore less hunting success. Using multiple planting seasons with diversity mixed throughout the year you can have great plots of help with basic soil health principles. The idea that it requires less inputs and increases the desire of the plants is proving to be not completely true
@@Landandlegacytube I’ve been doing this for 20 years while trying to improve. Food plotting means diverse techniques. I understand all the fades and crazes. A key is balanced soil down to the micros. Then Crop on crop building organic matter for rain retention. Here’s a solid example if you want corn, cheap then follow crimson clover. Probably wont need much fertilizer and get great weed suppression. Grow food on the flat ground cover in bottomlands and hillsides. Invest and learn best practices on electric fences. It’s so easy if a person buys the correct material once.
@@CentralMississippiWhitetail we’re in agreement with almost all. Regen plotting has adopted the no herbicide approach and it’s causing some major issues for guys since it’s blends on blends without any weed control.
@@Landandlegacytube Drill grains/legumes in the fall, come back in the spring, drill grains/legumes. In the pleasant months and hack/spray, burn. Place food next to cover and let it be deer most of the time. We all agree this is the way. Go watch Rusty on Farm and Ranch life. great channel
Im new to your podcast and your channel. But i know Hunter and Thomas on S&F theyve been huge to teach me prescribed fire. Seeing in this video, the green honeysuckle light up gets me really excited to light my stuff up soon. Thank you gentlemen!
What you do for Dog fennel Mares Tail taking over . If we disturb soul with disc after burning only thing we get is Sansburs any comments would be appreciated.
Good stuff I want to try a growing season burn. Some of my land looks similar to yours. Loads of young honeysuckle under nice oaks. Do you ever burn small poison ivy plants? Some of the areas I've burned have 3-8 inch poison ivy saplings everywhere and I'm wondering if you've encountered that
In the southern U.S. burns are important. But you can't get burns done!!! We a setting our selves up for bigger problems. Wildfires won't be small. They will be bigger and much more distrutful to the forest and wildlife. Everything now is a lawyer. Air quality will suffer. But it's not going to go away. It's just for of an eco system that has to be managed.
Hahaha yes it has. We’re working on way to improve the videos. Our hunting videos will be part of the HuntWorx show on sportsman’s channel and RU-vid coming this summer. More videos will be at @whitetail properties land beat series also. More to come through us at some point too
