I farm and ranch. Conventional ag production of corn and wheat mainly. I like guns and fishing. We homeschool our kids.

We were hanging out and then they heard the chickens squawk.

I don’t want to jinx it but it looks like we’ll get some good rainfall this weekend. It’d be wonderful to get a good shot of rain before the ground freezes up for the winter. Be good for the wheat and the pasture.

Went dove hunting tonight and got a limit of birds. My dog needed to cool off even though it wasn’t terrible hot.

An appropriate post for nostr. Grilling burgers and reading about Bitcoin. #grownostr image

The hail storm also smashed my green beans that we were enjoying. You know you can take green beans and steam them for a few minutes and then melt butter and add salt and pepper and green beans are just dynamite. So we replanted some beans and I don’t know if they’ll make any beans to eat but they look good now.

These tomato plants got smashed with hail a month ago. I trimmed the broken limbs off and now there is nice regrowth and new flowers showing up.

The other day we worked the cows and calves by our house before they went to grass. This guy someone got out of the pen after being worked and nobody saw him. We found him almost a week later. I had to catch him and put him in our shed. He was a bit standoffish at first but now looks forward to his bottle. Not sure if we’ll sell him or keep him awhile. Too bad, he’s a nice calf and would be doing well on grass with his mom.

6 tomato plants here. When it warms up some more I’ll plant a row of bush beans on each side. image

So I decided to just put all the tomatoes and peppers and eggplants out today. Supposed to be low wind and nice temps, so might as well. Then I walked by where I had planted some peas and onion bulbs. They are coming on! I kind of forgot about the peas so that was a nice surprise

I’m going to start hardening off some of my tomato starts. Those things have been growing like crazy, the weather forecast seems to be above freezing for a couple weeks, so I might as well get them going. #garden #grownostr

Does any one still use a ledger hardware wallet? I’ve got an iPhone and ledger seems to be the only major hardware wallet that works with iPhone. #bitcoin

Hey! It started raining last night and I woke up today with about an inch of rain in the gauge! Just what we needed! #farming #gardening #grownostr

Sure looks like a good chance of rain today and tomorrow. It’d be nice to get rain instead of snow but we’ll see how it all goes.

For some reason I’ve got the theme song from ncis stuck in my head. I haven’t watched that show in years!

I’m banding on 11-52 fertilizer on alfalfa of all things. I think it’s one of the easiest ways to get alfalfa going in the spring. The disc openers are very low disturbance and the slots can’t even be seen in just a few days. This will be year 4 of alfalfa on this circle. I’m hoping that after another 4 or more years the pigweed seed bank will be destroyed. That’s another option to fight weeds in ag. #farming #grownostr image

It’s kind of weird to get on here and scroll. I see stuff from earlier and “I think I saw that already. Guess I can stop scrolling.” That’s very different from Twitter. A good different. #grownostr

I built a chicken tractor for my hens. I’m afraid they’d disappear on me or get into trouble if I free range them. Plus I’m hoping they will tear up the puncturevine and weeds in the yard if I run them in certain spots. We shall see. #grownostr #chickens
