Hi everyone -
My question(s) for Haying today.
I see a lot of articles on what you "can do w/ horse waste". My question to the Hay makers here on the ranch; What do you suggest for a good hayfield fertilizer blend? It's a grass mix only we're pushing up. This coming spring will be my first time fertalizing. I hear the following: I can get a cart full of a fert blend and simply deploy it onto my field. Or buy 10 10 10 type stuff and spread my own, or... Use those hay-burners w/ ears as my source. I'm interested in using the horse kind as it's free to me.
The 2nd part- Anyone have a cleaver DIY (do it yourself) Manure Spreader idea? I will need something to shred and spew ... sorry "distribute"
They look so simple and I think I could make something that worked w/ some free time but you folks may even know a qick and easy method. Who's our master MAGyver here? For instance- I remember watching a TV show where a guy made a corn meal ginder from a push type lawn mower. It was pretty darn neat and very effective. LOL.
Thanks everyone.
