[QUOTE="LBrandt, post: 385372, member: 2979"] Been thinking on having a couple big straw bales run through one of those hay grinders and then till it in, in the fall. I do leave my sweet corn stalks stand over winter and then in the spring I use an old set of blades in my zero turn and mulch them up. I was amazed at how well the carrots in my second crop grew. I tiller up the row where I had harvested and then drove my golf cart down that row then spread the carrot seeds in the wheel track using like an old salt shaker to spread the seeds. Covered the seeds with 3/8 dirt and tamped the dirt down lightly with a 8" piece of 2x4. Kept it wet until the seeds sprouted and then watered 3 times a week right down the row and spread some 10-10-10 fertilizer every 2 weeks and watered it in. My soil is so sandy that I have to pack it some to be able to hold moisture. Carrots and my big sweet onions do real well in it. Had a few onions go a pound and a half and bigger than a soft ball. KDM got a 100 pounds of those from me to dehydrate. Scene it was the end of growing season I took KDM a level box full on my Ford Ranger of a little bit of every thing. Those chickens he raises eat good on what ever he and Sandy didnt can and that cooler full of chicken and burger was excellent, good trade. LB [/QUOTE]
