Habitat out loud

[SD51555]

The new plot is surging forward. I couldn’t be happier with how this is going. This spot is on my north end. I didn’t really dig up the soil other that popping stumps out and taking brush away. I was concerned it’d struggle with compaction and subsoil being brought up from digging.

I only put on lime and gypsum after the dig, but the cheat code is that this is forest soil. It’s loaded with Myco fungi, and I ripped it open and put it back and seeded in 72 hours and caught rain.

I was really hoping to see the sun hemp take off, but so far the millet and sorghums are leading the pack.

I filmed the throw and roll on my 5 year old plots today. They were bushy, but lots of good stuff in there yet. It laid down pretty well with one pass too.

I have one big bee balm plant in my south plot. I didn't count how many bumble bees were on it, but it had to be 30+. I spared it from the roller. You have to watch this in full screen to appreciate it.

I circled the ones I could see in the picture. There were more on the back side.

With all that bee balm and YSC, keeping bees will be the next project

A natural for your place and philosophy

Approximately how fast go when spreading seed?
