So after more heavy rains I finally have germination...like I keep saying, patience is key. I was just frustrated hearing how WR will grow so easily and almost anywhere!? We've been getting a lot of rain in SWPA and it sprouted finally. Good thing cause they are hammering the few turnips I...
So I hunted opening day afternoon sit, I rattled a nice 8 out of the corn but he never came closer than 60 yards or so. He needs another year imo. Saw 2 other rack bucks way off and 2 doe. Great first sit. I did check on my plot and they are already hammering the turnips and the greens. I...
I checked the seeds I put in a wet paper towel again a day later and they germinated so patience is key here. Another good rain today here in SW PA. I'll get out this wknd to hunt and see what's what.
I put a few seeds in a plastic bag with a wet paper towel as suggested and two days later I got nothing…idk if that means the seeds are duds? I got the seeds at a good ag store that’s been around a long time. We got more good rain over the weekend and today. Patience is key I’m hoping.
I sprayed that back in mid July the 14th I believe and I didn't really measure but it was on the light side if anything. Also if the 24D was a problem I wouldn't think the turnips would be growing but who knows...I broadcast 50lbs but I have some in my truck bed that spilled. I'll try the...

Well you guys were right on patience. I don’t have as many brassicas growing as I’d hoped but they are growing. We are getting some much needed rain now and for the next few days so I am pumped to have a nice stand of clover with brassicas growing within which was my original hope.
meant to post this not the one from above showing the dead thatch and clover...like I said, I was happy as there were far more brassicas I could see than just a few days ago.
Well I was a little happier I noticed far more turnips coming up a few days later. This was last night. I did broadcast another half pound or so into the bare spots and we had a good downpour overnight so I'm a little more optimistic
