Planted 8-18. Was nervous because heat index was in the 100's the next week and no rain in sight. Was happy with the moisture in the soil and was hopeful it would germinate good. Checked it mid week last week and could see some small sprouts starting. Got some rain yesterday afternoon and overnight and on into today. To me it was a perfect drizzle for a plot. Decided to check it this morning and it's taking off great.
Got 5 more plots in yesterday at my other property. I was expecting it to be dry with no rain for nearly 2 weeks and it being so hot. To my surprise in 3 of the 5 plots had a lot of moisture in them. So much it caked onto my boots while seeding yesterday. The other 2 were really dry but it's always real loose dirt in those fields. Timed it perfect because I got home about 1 yesterday and the rain started a couple hours later. This is the only pic I got yesterday but hoping they'll take off this next week and do good.
