    johnson grass

    I feed it to my cows and it makes excellent hay. Don't see any in the pasture as the cows will eat it before they will anything else growing there. Is there a danger during a drought, not in the pasture because you won't find it. The largest danger is when there has been a long dry spell and...

    Too Hot & Dry in TX, Too Cold & Wet up north

    Well it looks like you northerners are getting your wish of sending all that snow south. The rivers here are expected to crest at stages not seen since the 30's. And that was before all the rain we are getting now was even considered.

    Fire Ants Home Remedy?

    I ate grits or oats every morning before school. My dad wouldn't eat grits, said that was all they had to eat when he was a kid, said they called it "meal mush". He loved hominy though, and I didn't care for it. I guess everything is allot better if you don't have to eat it. Another thing he...

    what advice would you give ?

    I wouldn't jump in with both feet untill I tested the water first. If you are passionate about it you will find a way to make it work, but don't kick the foundation out from under yourself untill you have another place to stand.
