    I wanna kill dock, thistle, sorrell..

    I do a lot of spot sparying with my little 25gal tank, with Spectracide. It contains 2-4d, is cheap and does a great job on cuckleburs, and thistles, (1oz/gal) Spectracide

    Goat

    At least you know where to find her. I wouldn't change a thing, (i.e. move the table or trashcan) or she might find some escape route or other mischievous thing to get into.

    Fertilizer with Grazon next

    No it looks like that is something else. Some of what I've found: 2,4-D and 2,4-DB This is the broadleaf king slayer of herbicides. Land managers commonly use this to spray oat, sorghum, rye and wheat plots. Used correctly, it kills broadleaf plants - including clover - without damaging grass...

    Poll, Original Farm Christmas Decorations

    I kinda got the scrooge/grinch after the kids quit caring about decorations. I did this to minimize the req'd effort each year. Now I have a 2yr old granddaughter that LOVES the Grinch. So he came back out at the old farm house.

    GMO has been going on since the first indians picked the ear of corn that was the biggest, and had the most kernels, down to the fastest horses.

    Grasshoppers

    How many grasshoppers make up that 30 lbs? If an avg. grasshopper weight is 0.01oz (from google)..... how much does a grasshopper weigh ?48,000? If I did the math right. .005oz per day per hopper=240lbs/day for 48,000 hoppers FWIW-I have used Lambda in the past with pretty good results.
