We have several acres that we have been working on. The first year we mowed it low in the spring and used a broad cast spreader with Timothy. It was a waste of money for the most part. A lot of the seed never got to the ground so it did not germinate. The second year we did a space about 75x 100. We mowed it low and used one of the propane torches to burn the thatch and every thing else. We used the broad cast spreader again much better results. The new seed did well and the old grass came back. We did put some 10-10-10 down after every thing sprouted and you could see a difference all year but that was a lot of work. The third year I got a walk behind slit seeder from a landscaper. That was the best way to do it. The olny thing was we had to put weights on the seeder so it would cut the ground. We should have done it sooner in the year when the ground was soft. Last yeas we cut the field low and used one of those drag mats from TSC then went over it again with the mower. That was at the end of February. In mid march we used the slit seeder and went in two directions. It was an unbelievable deference compared to the rest or the field. We are in south east Ohio out side New Athens. The pic is part of the field. we are clearing it to make a food plot.

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
