Isn't that something?!!? 1" predicted for my area, not a drop! I was oh so close to spreading some urea on my topseeded rye in a bean plot yesterday afternoon....but I didn't!

 

[bueller]

The turkeys are likely enjoying all the rye I seeded a week and a half ago. I may have to throw another bag on the plot next time up to compensate.

Haven't had any rain for about a month now. Brassicas were looking good but I feel with no rain in sight, they may start to go downhill. I feel you bueller, I spread 50 pounds of rye on my new clover plot 2 weeks ago since we were suppose to get rain and now it's missed up twice. Been a very frustrating year.

I'm just ready for the season to open at this point. Although it's looking like I may not get out early season much, if at all

I checked on my other bean plot yesterday that I topseeded with rye about two weeks ago, no rye to be found anywhere. I also have a cam on this plot....vids of two sandhill cranes marching up and down the bean rows.

We had 5" on Wednesday! Then 2 days of sun and breeze. Planted oats, cereal rye, wheat, peas and soybeans Saturday. Then got another 3/10's yesterday! I guess I cant complain!

Hallelujah. After a bunch of swing and misses since planting I'm finally getting a good soaker right now! :emoji_cloud_lightning::emoji_cloud_rain:

 

[Bill]

Send it south west!
We got some last week. Could use more....

Rained again at my place today, Bill! You didn't get it? I had a pic from the farm with my mineral lick full of water.

Probably ~ .25 - .5 inches since last night

Thunder & lighting in the west ... maybe more on the way ...

No, we were supposed to but we got nothing but clouds.

Pops says I had nearly 2" of rain in my gauge! He had almost 3" a mile away. And those just a couple miles west of us didn't get a drop.

Plus a quick line just pushed through moments ago. My rye should be up and running now.

 

[Barndog56]

Just got about .8 right now, though the forecast was for only .15. Should have put my cereal mix in today...........

I used to plant Labor Day weekend but after several years of dry September's and really late germinating rye (week into bow season before useful) I now plant in the middle of August. Plots will be lush green for the bow opener.

 

[Tree Spud]

Got .38" last nite, still about 2" behind for the month.

 

[H20fwler]

It keeps missing us here...thirty miles north or south get an inch or two, we a tenth or two.

 

[bueller]

I haven't seen it myself but I'm being told my plot is greening up and some of the rye is 2" tall :emoji_seedling:

-22° right now with the wind chill. I was going to go shoot a doe tonight.
