I'm changing it up today from clearing off new plot to putting in some more trees. With the rain we had a couple days ago the ground is nice and moist right now. I'm adding another 25 nuttal oaks. Shout out to "The Wildlife Group". Great folks to deal with if you need trees.
This is what throw n mow is all about in the pic below. The hardest part for many folks is seeing past just "this year" and turning their focus toward long term goals. The black dirt comes from decaying organic matter. In another month or two folks will be asking...."Should I plant this or should I plant that?"......To make that black dirt, first and foremost you have to produce plenty of total biomass no matter what you grow. That should be a main focus for you this summer. The best thing for most folks is going to be to fertilize and lime and allow the native vegetation to produce your biomass. Add clover in the fall and let the field do its thing. Notice the black beginning to streak deeper into the soil profile now past the main line.
