I would highly recommend anyone that is broadcast seed (not drilling) get that seed on the ground before Friday night. Looks like another good rain should sweep across the state Friday night through Saturday morning, but then we will go through a dry period that might last 10 days and possibly longer.

Planting in the rain works great!

I have a very small lease and for sure no tractor but I have a rake or two, some healthy 15-year-old twin boys, and a bag of mixed seed. So Labor Day after setting up a second ground blind we found a flat spot with some sunshine, cut down some brush, raked raked raked raked sowed by hand, cover tamp cover tamp cover tamp and the place got rained on within an hour. Our Plot is miniscule compared to what is posted and I know for sure the ground needs lime, but we shall see what happens next, and I will get pictures, no matter the results. I figure, ya' gotta start somewhere.

Im planting in the morning, I might plant everything I have left but I am concerned about no rain in the 10 day after that. Definitely could cause issues. I will likely plant everything that Im disking and covering but nothing that Im just "throwing and growing".
