    24D and red clover.

    if you have 3 days of warm weather the grass is no longer dormant. it starts to green up a little and clover being a hot weather grass it will remain dormant even if you have a few days of warm weather. I am telling you 2,4-D in feb when you have 3 days of warm (above 55) weather will kill...

    24D and red clover.

    If you want to spray 24d you need to do so in feb when you have 3 days of 55+ temp. It will kill clovers if sprayed at wrong time. In feb and march the clover is still dormant and you should not see any harm to the clover. I have done this and it worked for me in Middle tenn area. also make...

    Newest Addition To The Herd

    I think this is a beautiful heifer. Good legs, Long body and not too much condition. Too many people want to see animals with a BCS (Body Score Condition) of a 9 or even a 10 to think they look good. That is bull crap because you put that BCS 9 or 10 in the pasture and the grass will go on her...
