I went out to the lease to fill the protein feeder take measurements for repairs and plant some honeysuckle with a watering system install.
I know some of you don't approve of planting Honeysuckle but please don't make this a Urinary Decathlon, some others here may wish to do the same.
I installed 3 healthy sized plants in the ground with wire cages for protection and am going to water a small amount every other day. I'm in an area that gets just enough rainfall for them to do okay until summer where it typically dries up to nearly a crisp. Additionally I'm not planting for them to do okay, I fertilized lightly and want them to flourish.
I'm watering from my 275 tote which the deer rarely drink from....I think it's a bathtub for the coons. I used a small bilge pump which was laying around from another project and an old water hose with a 12vdc deer feeder timer. The only draw back to any deer feeder timer is they have a maximum 30 second run time. But, again it and the box was in the shed begging to be re-purposeed.
The feeder will be moved to the left on my next trip with a Krivoman directional installed slinging parallel to the line of honeysuckle.
The plants are 23-26 yards from the stand with the corn running 18-24.
I left directly from work on Friday to do a little predator hunting. I was accused of setting up a meth lab...
