    Horse manure as a good garden compost?.🤔🤔🤔

    Ironically, this summer in Oklahoma the Zucchini bugs devoured my cucumbers once the zucchini was gone.

    Should a new tractor come with a full tank of gas?

    When my dealer delivered my Kioti, (let's give a shout out to Home John's Tractor Works & Equipment Inc. Vinita, OK (918) 256-5774 in Vinita, OK. I don't want any mistake as to who this review is aimed at) he just couldn't wait to get back in his truck and leave. It was my 1st tractor so I asked...

    steering wheel spinner knob

    Because the knob is orange and my steering wheel is black! I don't have any sort of sun shield or cab on the tractor. I live in OK and the steering wheel can get too hot to touch.

    lowe's wrong chain saw in box

    15 years ago I went to my local stihl dealer to buy a chainsaw. I looked at the models online and knew what I wanted. He had it in stock but wanted to charge me $50 over list. When I pointed that out I was told very forcefully that, "this is MY price". I left and have never went back. The next...

    lowe's wrong chain saw in box

    I have never had a Lowes not make things right when I finally spoke to a manager about it. That said, today I am taking back a faucet I purchased online a little over 2 months ago. The box is a little warped because it was delivered and left out in the rain instead of being put under the porch...

    Today, would you buy an EV vehicle.

    Sorry to burst your bubble, but as long as we have a president we will never "give up" Air Force 1. Regardless of the fuel used, any aircraft becomes Air Force 1 when the president steps on board. If he takes a ride on the Good Year Blimp, it's Air Force 1 while he is on board. Air Force 1 has...

    Zero turn mower advice

    This is my 4th season on a ferris. I got it at the end of season sale the year before I really used it. I love it! It's built like a tank. The best thing is the suspension and the seat. The seat isn't just another mower's padded seat, it is comfortable. If feels like it was molded for my...

    Would You Loan It Out?

    Ain't that the truth! Though I'd also add, "and bull$..t"

    Battery powered chainsaw

    It is is very handy on a farm. I have a Kobalt. It's a toy, but a damn handy one. It's very light and the most useful thing in the world when I'm picking up after my self pruners (a ton of pecan trees). I also have a Kobalt battery sawzall. That is awesome for clearing a saplings and overgrowth...

    Steering wheel knob placement

    That's how mine is. I initially thought I'd put it so I could flip the seat up without it interfering. That didn't work. It drifts and ends up in a different position every time I shut down. Still, it's nice to have it anywhere so I don't have to grab the super-hot black steering wheel on a...

    Always Set Parking Brake!

    I beg to differ, it would've been a waste of money! You see, he probably used up all of his good luck for that year ;)

    Pocket Gopher Control

    I won't use poison either, due to the risk of pets finding & eating the dead or dying critters. I use this car exhaust to garden hose adapter for the moles in my yard. It works really well, but it either misses some or they move back in before too long. Since it's too big to fit on my tractor...

    Kioti warranty termination after *any* DIY work? Really?!?!

    There are several things, but here are the 2 that really struck a nerve. Mostly because they were so simple and cheap to resolve, yet still beyond what the dealer and the manufacturer were willing to do. I bought the tractor at our local farm show. It was delivered a few days after the show...
