Yeah, all this rain is making me wish I'd done mine Saturday but I didn't.

We did ours at Hardin Creek last week. Finished sunday. Had 3/4 inch rain since. Nice! Great timing tellico. They still plowing at our gillis mills lease.

Last year we were done by Aug 10. Of course I have waited until mid-Oct before to get them in, all depends on the weather...

If the past 2 years are the result of global warming, then I say let the polar bears swim!

35 plots??? Wow!!! We disked, planted, and fertilized Saturday so yeah gotta love it when the rain arrives as forecasted.

Are you all worried about the heat getting to them?

 

[Mr. Hawk]

Did you mix in Daikon Radish, Rape, Wheat/Oats/Rye in all of the plots? or separate?

No its been my experience if I can get a rain and get them up and it turns hot it will be real humid and lots of dew to hold it til the next rain.

We used a Plotmaster to plant strips of the Rape & Radish mixture into 20 well established clover plots. The other 15 plots were disked-cultipacked-sown with the grain seed mix-cultipacked-overseeded with the Rape & Radish mix.
