Whoooopppppeeeeee!!

Post by soiltester »

1st time in 4 seasons, the weatherman had it rain when it was suppose to and my food plot is up and goin! :thumbup:
I got back from MI last Tuesday night(Wednesday morn.) at 3am and to bed at 4am, up at 7:30 and disc my 1 1/4 acres 2 times (still hard small spots that weren't worked) ..spread 200# of wheat seed and drag spiked it and planted 50#'s of rye and 25#'s of crimson clover and spiked again and then got .9" of rain on Thursday from Harvey. :cheers:
Got another 1" of rain between yesterday and the day before.

Alright. I'm gonna do the same then. I just thought maybe the wheat would drown out the other stuff. But since your name is Soiltester then I'm certain you know your stuff when it comes to that. I'm gonna do the same then in about 2 weeks. Was just wondering.
