Our horse hay guy got rained on and needs to get rid of some hay. Never thought of it before but do you think brassica, oats, and wheat would grow up thru a light mulch of hay? I have one smaller plot that is very rocky and if I didn’t have to turn it over it would be much easier. Just a thought. Don’t know if it would work or not

100% - I have an entire thread on growing plots through "thatch" or mulch layers.

checkout thread no-till so easy, in the wildlife habitat section. Let me know if you have questions, I am happy to try to help.
