[QUOTE="tellico4x4, post: 5750326, member: 2474"] Here's my best looking plot planted 3 weeks ago. [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_20231029_165140835.jpg"]200824[/ATTACH] Have 29 others that look like this [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_20231029_164154544.jpg"]200825[/ATTACH] Less than 1/2" rain in September ; .30'" thru yesterday in October. Finally getting a decent rain this morning, 4 hours worth so far. Went totally old school with all the plots this year. Disked them in late July, had good rain in August that germinated weed seed, burned down the new growth. Disk again with gangs straight in mid September. Cultipacked in early October, planted blend of wheat/oats/triticale and cultipacked again. Then planted a blend of crimson/rape (wasted rape) on annual plots & blend of crimson/balansa/Durana/Advantage/arrowleaf/brassica (wasted brassica) on all the clover plots, and cultipacked again. With all the acorns in woods the turkeys have left the plots alone & most of our doves left a month ago, so feel good about minimal seed loss. Not sure what to expect with seed being in ground for 3-4 weeks, now getting good rain & sub freezing temps predicted for next couple nights. Never been in this scenario before... [/QUOTE]
