Yes Rifle D is the same as Brash. The surfactant I use is nothing special, just a decent quality 80/20 non-ionic product from Winfield called Valcheck. It cost me $56.25 per 2 1/2 gallon jug. My sprayer holds 335 gallons so I use 3 quarts per load. Using the Brash and surfactant and...

Lakes Stillhouse Hollow & Belton for those of you that wonder what the heck he is talking about. Two lakes that are low for years at a time and are only get worse with the large influx of out of state'ers moving to the area. Good bass fishing in both though.

One of the experts around here (mostly for turf) has always had a mantra, "never use weed and feed". "You will not get the desired results from either one." "Kill the weeds first, than fertilize a couple weeks later.

sstterry, you might be better off using Pasturegard.

It would be welcomed for sure but legumes are expensive and not easy to establish in our area. Maybe a mixture of native grasses that require less inputs would be an alternative. I bought a tract from a man that is considered the best grass man in our area. It was mostly Bermuda of various...

I fed 80 rolls this winter of Rye grass/ oats mixed hay that was rained on three different times and laid in the field almost a month. I was afraid it was junk. They didn't care for much at the beginning but has it got older and fermented some, they liked it. The young calves preferred it...

Just fence off with small 8' x 8' square around the trees you want to keep. Field fence works best. I did some 20 years ago that are now 30' tall.

I would sell my cows before I would use them again for feed. Waste was horrible and the breakdown of the waste took a long time. For nutrient value I would pay about $20 a piece. They do work okay in erosion spots.

Winter is a good time to kill the larger mesquites using the basal bark method. Spray them now and you will have skeletons next spring.

If you need some soldiers for this war, the local sale barn should have a few. They will graze it out in a couple summers. In my area and probably Lonnie's, If managed correctly, it grows in the hot summer year after year without replanting or adding inputs. A drought won't kill it and if...

Remember how Bevo got his name? The most popular theory is that Cadets from Texas A&M stole the mascot to brand 13 – 0, which was the score the Aggies had won by the year before. Faced with that dilemma some UT student suggested combining the 1 and 3 to create a B, made an E out of the -, added...

I used them on some large ash juniper which are what most people in Texas call cedar trees. Put the pellets around the drip line. It takes a few months but the trees died along with the roots. A few months later with the top showing dead, a big wind would just topple the trees root ball and...

Its best to use vinyl gloves if you put them out. They don't work real well in tight clay soils but do very well in sand or loam. In some states they are restricted. The best way to use them is on the upside of the plant you are trying to kill. They soak in in and gradually work down hill...

I have had good luck with one of the DiCamba 2 4 D mixes but they require a license. I have been using Brash. You can easily see where I missed with the sprayer in the spring as the broom weed really shows up as the growth is at its high and still green. I would think that mowing...

Screwing around today I saw a ad for Mexican Feathergrass. This is the same needle grass we talked about a few weeks back and the one that is giving me fits in my pastures. http://www.txsmartscape.com/plant-search/plant-details.php?id=986 So this very invasive plant is being sold all over...

It looks like it would have way to much flow for a pond or lake. Your trees are probaly what is keeping it from eroding further. I agree with Travlr. Thin it out some.

I would make another effort to get it sprigged and use the seeding effort as a backup plan. Sprigging the coastal is generally much cheaper and you will have better results. Seeding the tiny Bermuda seed is not easy. Try to get the sprigging done in February. Ask the FSA office for a list...

It looks very similar to the three awn I am having fits with.

Brute, its rotational grazed. I have fertilized it, to try to build the fertility hoping the Tifton would outgrow it but it seems that the 3 awn benefits as much as the Tifton does. Its bottom land and has a zillion fire ant mounds. I was thinking about lightly discing it a few weeks before I...
