Lots of sweat and $$$.
That is what I thought
That is what mine look like, and I spray some round up and plant
I will take some photos next weekend if I can. River bottoms rock
BTW it looks great and you should be proud. Not too many guys would put the effort in you have. I am sure it will pay off soon.
Lots of sweat and $$$. Trust me, I've been doing it for 2x years now. With accurate soil testing,the right kind andtype offertilizer and the right amount of lime and you can grow great stuff anywhere.
Sorry just thought of this, yes you can grow it, but will it have the same minerals as river bottom area, or some of the best soil in Ill or Iowa? I think this is where the real benifit of the Midwest comes into play IMO. I really don't know, but this has been a good thread for me.
