Bigslams food plots

[MK111]

I'm hoping for rain also for the seed I sowed on Sunday. Couple drops now.
Good luck on your rain.

If you want a clover plot do a fall seeding on top of your present planting. Then do a frost seeding early next spring. I did a late frost seeding of clover on my oats in late march and I now have a good stand of clover knee high.

When in the fall do you broadcast your clover, frank?

How much rain did you get Chad?

 

[Bigslam51]

Not sure, but I drove out to our land today and looked at the dirt from the road and it was soaked. The plot I planted for my buddy is sprouting up already.

When in the fall do you broadcast your clover, frank?

When it's wet enough and still warm enough to get a good start before cold winter.

Looks good Chad!

Good deal!

Rain is a good thing!

 

[Bigslam51]

Rain is a good thing!

Yes it is, but there isn't anymore in the forecast[emoji20]

 

[bowhunter1023]

Ah, there'll be some. The important thing is you got a good dousing to kick things off. If we keep having these cool, damp nights, that'll help too. We'll see rain again in a week.

The almanac is saying September and October is going to be wetter than normal.

Yes. . . Because we didn't get enough in June or July. :smiley_blackeye:

Aren't they saying above average snowfall also?

 

[Lumber head 75]

Aren't they saying above average snowfall also?

I believe so.

Its going to rain!! Its dryer than chit here, I haven't mowed the grass in 3 weeks. My plots need a really good soaking! Mike told me he'd do a rain dance for me and apparently it worked LOL.

When is it going to rain? My buddy and I put in a small plot on Friday. We hauled water from my creek in large plastic totes and watered it in a bit. But, a decent rain soon would be a huge help.

 

[Bigslam51]

Well hopefully I didn't jinx myself. We just had nice green pass over us on the radar and it didn't rain a drop at the house. Could of rained 3 miles south where our land is, but I won't know til tomorrow.

 

[MK111]

I know what your feeling we was forcasted for 30% rain today and didn't get a drop. Another 30% on Monday and nothing for 7 days.

 

[Bigslam51]

Its getting old, frank. Just came outside and it rained, about 3 drops LOL. Hopefully it rained hard on my plots but I doubt it with the way its been going.
