It's on the way finally ! Me and my dad got our 6 little fields planted yesterday . Got the last few bags the local farm supply had , apparently we weren't the only ones watching the weather. We got our recipe put out , with the addition of a big ol sack of crimson clover my dad got for us.

What all did you plant? Hopefully we get the inch previously forecasted. Some models showing 1/2" now. We need whatever we can get, and then some.

Weather underground has us getting maybe a half inch of rain today. We need it.

Spread clover fertilizer Tues & finished overseeding 14 annual plots at 9:00 last night. Done for 2024.

 

[megalomaniac]

overseeding with 350lbs cereal rye to try to save 1/3rd of the plots. The other 2/3 are just going to stay dead.

I'm over this planting season

Overseeded mine again with wheat, rye, and oats, 50 lbs of each in anticipation of anyrain tonight and tomorrow. The plots look good cosidering how little rain they have received. The morning dews have made the difference and kept them from failing.

I still have 2 1/2 bags of rye that will be sown before the next significant rain chance over the next 2-3 weeks.

Yup. Since the hurricane rains, my plots have been living on morning dew. And the shady sides of the plots are doing MUCH better than the sunny sides.

I'm planning to overseed some today. Just can't hit them all but I can here at the house anyway. Been a tough one this year.

 

[wildlifefarmer]

It may a mistake but I planted yesterday with oats CC red and ladino. Slightly cut with straight disk sowed and cultipacked thru sparse CC and bushogged corn. Oh well, if it grows so be it!! At least the clovers will germinate this next spring.

The thin squall-line is moving my way. Please hold together!

Rain moved in earlier than it was forecast to here. I was working on fence and it started sprinkling, then the bottom dropped out. Very thankful for this rain.

I have 200 acres that look like this... cover crop drilled in harvested corn fields 14d ago. So far about .25in, but still raining... the cover crop 'might' make it...

We picked up about an inch here today. Plots and pastures sure needed it.
