Join us as we tour the dove field 65 days after planting corn and sunflowers. We have beautiful sunflowers and some corn cobs starting to emerge. Millet field is looking great 28 days after planting. Thanks for watching, enjoy!
You certainly have the feed for them. You'll have plenty of dove especially with that clean ground under the corn and sun flowers. It's looking good so far. Sorry about the deer issues this year.
Thank you sir, I think there will be some food around. Lot of good looking corn up the road from us and a big spring wheat harvest as well. Lot of well fed birds in our area
Looks good buddy, my sunflowers got outgrown by the woolly Croton. But doves love that too so we still should be in good shape. Got clean ground under the croton and it’s starting to head out
My weed control is not great, I have great sunflowers with good heads but I’m concerned about weeds, I’m planning to spray glyphosate about 2-3 weeks before the opener to get clean ground for the seeds to fall on it. Any experience or advice I follow? Thanks
Pretty sure they were jumping between the top electric row which is the third and that high white line above there’s about a 2 foot gap there someplace is three. Last year we did the two row 3D fence, but that was a lot of pain to weed & mow around so we tried something different
Great question. The Clearfield is a GMO that allows the use of post-emergent broad leaf herbicide (Imazamox). Critical to keeping a clean field so birds can access the seed below.

Depending on how bad the grass and weeds are, I would spray as soon as possible. it can take two weeks to see really good results and three weeks to even begin opening up the ground. Good luck!
