i have and try to manage pine trees in the south on my farm.
i have been to tree farm courses, seminars and meetings.
i also have been recently to an all day seminar on food plots for wildlife.
the issue is getting small seed to germinate and not planting it too deep.
i saw a picture of a homemade cultipacker made out of drain tile, filled with concrete. i have a tractor - so i like 3 point hitches.
i almost bid on a 8 foot nice metal cultipacker one a month ago at an auction - it went for 325. i don't own a 4 wheeler - yet!
does anyone of you know a company that sells them reasonable? or has drawings on how to make one. i don't weld myself, but i have a neighbor that fixes things for me and is wiling to make one.
i have alot of hill sides recently cleared that i need to get grass planted.
i can disk harrow and run the front end loader backwards, but i'd like to get my hands on one of those cultipackers. starting to get some silt washing and need to get grass planted soon.
any ideas out there on this subject or drawings?
i have tried searching the web.
