Default RE: My PA Food Plot Pics - 7/21 -

Man does spreading lime suck badly when you cheap out and buy powder instead of pelletized. We spread a full ton today on this and it wouldn't sift down through the hopper on the seeder/spreader, so I had to stand on the tongue of it while pops drove the tractor, I had to keep stirring it the whole time w/ a 25 lb pry bar for 3 hours while we spread...........what a pile of crappy work. Anyways it is done. I also sprayed the other small 1/4 plot that is going in this year. In the next week, pops will get the tine harrow and rake over this to smooth it all out and mix the lime in a bit, and I am heading down in about 2 weeks to seed both plots. I don't have pics of the other plot but that one will be very nice even though it isn't as big, it is VERY remote. Anyhow, here is a pic of the big plot all limed after our work today.
