Springtime Plot Work

It is finally drying out from the never ending rainfall we have been getting over the last few months and it looks like we will be able to get into the plots for some much needed work. In March we try to to spray the plots with a grass specific herbicide to kill the oats.

Why kill the oats when we have been working so hard to get them to grow all winter?? Because it is time for the clover and chicory to take over and letting the oats continue to grow just keeps the clover and chicory from thriving. We will spray all the plots with Arrow using a boom sprayer and in a couple of weeks the oats will be gone and clover will be lush.....and the deer love the clover!

Its shed hunting time at the C4! I will post some pics when we start finding them...it's almost as much fun as the actual hunting.....almost.....
