[QUOTE="mobgrazer, post: 644029, member: 9043"] I have a mile and a half of road line that runs next to my property. It’s a track and a half gravel road. It is very flat with no water drainage. There has been a redneck sub division going in across the street that has made the water run off a huge nuisance. Most of the users for the road are form the sub division. I worked on fixing up this area a bit but need some help. On my property line (state has no right away on my land at this time) I put down an 8 foot wide strip of river and field rock. After the rock there is a 5 foot change in elevation with a 150 foot strip of land before my alfalfa field. I planted yard clover and it is growing nicely in that strip. I would love to plant some trees in this strip to help with the wind form blowing there trash onto my land. I was looking at putting in a strip of trees this spring but do not know what type to put in. I did buy some k-line irrigation stuff and will be water it twice a week for the first year. I’m looking to plant 2 or 3 rows of trees in a 25 foot wide strip. It will get swampy roots every time we have a good rain unless the state steps in and dose something about the mess. I need something that will not suffer form large amounts of ice damage. I do not want something that gets massive but can get a good size. I was thinking about getting a few boxes of pine tree saplings but do not know what kind to get or if it would be a good choice. Any suggestions on tree types and spacing that will work well on the cheap. [/QUOTE]
