My fall spray/throw/mow plots have germinated

[Native Hunter]

Planted about 2 weeks ago with good rain since then. If we have a fall drought like last year, I will still be in good shape. 3 types of clover, oats, wheat, chicory, 2 types of peas, buckwheat, beans, sun hemp and just a tad of grain sorghum that probably won't be able to make a head before frost. Done with a pickup truck and lawn mower.

Looks good! Just proof you don’t have to have all the fancy equipment to get great plots!

Thanks, but I should probably divulge that my lawn mower is a Grasshopper......

Is anyone else having issues with pics not showing? This has happened on different thread as well - would love to see this (being a planting junkie).

I'm not sure why they aren't showing for you. I've not had anyone else to mention having a problem.

Thanks- must be my work VPN doing something. Switched to my call phone and I'll say nice looking plots.

Please don't show these to my wife. She knows what I paid for a tractor and Firminator! That looks great. My plots are not quite ready for TNM but I'm heading that way. Finished irrigation install this year and that tore some plots up and brought ugly soil to the surface. Looks like you have some nice early succession fields to take some grazing pressure off of your plots. I'm in Georgia and felt the pain of the drought last year. I'm curious as to what was in the plot before you sprayed and planted. Looks like you've got some great thatch down under those plants.

for some reason this came to mind as a lot of plots are toast.

Thanks. Before spraying it was an old clover plot that had been taken over by grass. My thatch was just about perfect for the job.
