Look at all the green stuff! Crazy what one rain storm can do. I am about to light my burn piles from the recent trees I cut down. Pictures to come.

 

Nice.

I have probably 6 or 7 more, holy cow that was a lot of work, good thing I had my brother and friends come down to dove hunt to help out.

 

Digging up some past posts... Where did you source your hydrated lime? I can't seem to locate it at the home stores. What would you estimate your application rate would be?

 

The local hardware stores here have it, might try calling some feed stores, 50lb bag is probably $14 nowadays. The material I was using already has a form lime in it, I used 14 bags with approximately 22 tons of caliche.

 

Thanks, I'll try that. I'm going to try using it to stabilize some pea gravel I have, the kids drag that stuff everywhere.

 

What's the pea gravel made of?

 

Not all materials will bond together, you may end up with more of a mess.

 

I'll have to take a look and see if it is quartz, granite, limestone, or other. It is white pea gravel so it is a mix. I based off of my reading if it has calcium in it it will help bind.

 

Let there be fire!

 

Did you call the fire dept so they know to ignore all the 911 calls?

 

I am in South Carolina. Nobody cares

 

It’s definitely a little different east of the Mississippi where wildfires aren’t a huge problem like out west.

 

I have a single axle HD tilt trailer I’ll be using to move around the older B series Kubota I now have. I went with E rated Kenda trailer tires; my question is should these be balanced? I’m seeing mixed things about balancing specific trailer tires and that it’s not necessary? Anybody have any experience with this?

 

Most tire places don t balance ST tires.

They can if you ask.

 

Every tire I put on my stuff gets road forced balanced. Including trailer tires.

 

Are they bias or radial trailer tires?

 

I always balance trailer tires using the logic that smooth is better even if you can't feel it in the truck.

I use one of these, not as shiny...

 

I balance my trailer tires but I’m running 10k miles per year so tread life is a big deal.

 

Same thing happens here in rural Pennsylvania. "Oh, that's just Jim Bob burning again"
