Piloon, great info, thanks! buick, you just described my pond to a T. I only wish the spring that feeds my property was not 400yards within my neigbor's property and especially since this water feeds my pond only and nothing else. BTW this is a wooded area with no farming, and no sprays of any...

According to a phone app. the distance between my barn and the closest part of the pond is 277 ft. I figure I can run underground power down there easy enough and bury next to it a pex pipe thus utilizing a submersible pump to push the water up to the containers with a float to cut off waterflow...

Good morning fellow members, I have 60 acres in rural Northern Alabama which is utilized as a weekend getaway (our place of serenity). My water meter is about 1 mile away and the water arrives through 3/4" pvc pipe and through other people's property. The pipe is shallow in most places and as a...

Gang, what kind of mushrooms are these and are the eatable? One has what appears to be animal bites on them and they grow in certain areas of my property. Not portabelo but hey, they might be tasty.

Is a 7 foot bush hog too much for a IH 584? Thanks,

Gents, I am being offered the following items for purchase and would like to know if the prices are indeed as reasonable as he is making them out to be. 1) Auger/post hole digger- Woods 1190 with a 12" auger bit and tip for $200. 2) Woods 84 bushhog/mower 7 foot for $500. Your guidance will be...

Gents, I had a break-in at my property last week. They defeated the entrance cattlegate, easy to do and as shown in the pic, and they drove in to steal a 5x10 trailer, a couple of non-functional 4wheelers, and a bunch of other little things. But they didn't get into the workshops and the house...

Can someone please provide suggestions on a more effective sprayer? I'd like to effectively spray my fruit trees, vines....Right now I am using a hand pump sprayer but it's wearing me out.

Do any of you know what type cable this is, approx. what gauge it is, and if it can be used to connect two batteries together? It's pretty heavy gauge with rubber insulation but it's not copper judging from its color. Thanks,

I recently purchased this 1200 plus litter tank but I don't know what was kept in it. I'd like to use it as a water tank collector to water the fields so I put chlorox in it and water to help clean it. Is there any other substance you'd recommend that would be more effective? It also has this...

It's sad! After all the work I put into this new to me IH 584 by degreasing it, repairing all its leaks and painting it, and boy was I proud of all that work, Saturday after using the FEL to remove a cemented post I suddenly could not shift into reverse or low. The shifter is stuck in high but...

Good morning all, After 4 years of working around my property with my little Yanmar, btw a great little tractor with absolutely zero failures all this time, I bought this new to me IH 584 on July 1. I washed, degreased and took care of filter cleanings already and it obviously needs a good...

I have plenty of rabbit, deer, and turkey about but this does not seem to be any of those. Could it be wild hogs moving in?

Good morning all, I am getting ready to put up a log cabin (constructed by square oak logs) and was wondering if there's a "worth while" forum out there I can become a member of that discusses construction ideas. What I'm buying is a kit with plans, and directions, and it'll be a 2 story 24x24...

Can you identify this snake for me please? I hope it turns out to be poisonous but in retrospect it doesn't appear to be.
