This is just a sample, some of these are not farmed, usually the ones that are D3 or E3, they just got stuck in my survey.

Zanesville is better for spring work, the others can become buckshot if they are worked too wet. We have learned that if you work light, 2-3inches, in the spring and plant, you will be best off.
