If you're shipping anything of much weight, it's going to be sky high. Personally, I buy my brassica mixes online, and then cereal grains, peas, etc locally. Can mix your own. This keeps the cost reasonable, since brassica # / acre are quite small. Albert Lea Seed, Merit Seed and...

July 28th, 2024 20" of rain later... and its chest high! :D Excellent deep green color - Very happy plants. Most in boot stage now, should have a great stand come this fall. Can tell where the drill misses spots here and there, a good row planter would do wonders for this crop. Still I...

Agree. Coated urea still has substantial losses if left out in the heat.

Non-volatile.. hmm. Tough for Nitrogen. Options (From most to least volatile) : - Coated Urea (46-0-0) - Granular broadcast - UAN (36-0-0) - liquid - AMS (22-0-0-26S) - Granular broadcast (fertilizer grade - Should have a gray color)

+1. Drag will help pull some of the thatch loose..

If it ain’t Sitka, it’s Shitka.. :P

+1. Till and plant. Other option is likely a mess of poor germination and weeds. Can always come back and spray cleth if Rye comes back too thick.

You and me both. I think my camera images are fake..

Or I guess you could always just not tell people where your farm(s) are? Closest guy to me is probably @letemgrow, but he seems like a pretty nice guy so I'd probably skip doing that to his farm this year.. :p

If you have a lot of bare soil, you could try broadcasting. But I'd still pack them in. Preferably before a good rain. As for timing - Where are you located?

Jbohn - Grain Sorghum is a great solution where lack of moisture is an issue. Very drought tolerant. Just another idea..

We’re similar latitude, also in central MO. Personally I’d give it another couple of weeks.

AMS is a good alternative. 21-0-0-24S. Not as volatile either.. But yes, your CO-OP is smoking rocks.

Also hearing FL real estate is going to pop again.. Bet the fed starts to drop rates second half of this year. Slowly.

Some great stands there. Noticing much deer activity in them? Curious to try to mix these with a grain sorghum planting, next year perhaps..

Straight brassica mix only? 2-3# PTT / acre. For radish, I've gone 5# / acre but going to 8# / acre this year. Even in a mix, I feel I can get away with a lot more radish..

Planted at same time? Same method? Interesting..

+1. Larger seed needs more incorporation. Rye or wheat would be a better bet.

You may be surprised. I’ve grown a great Milo crop in 5.6 pH before, but we had timely rains. Used about 80# N / acre. Even with brassicas you’ll want to fertilize some. Otherwise, can always wait until late August and drill in a cereal grain mix. Some combination of...

Is it actual WGF (90 Day) Milo? If so, you still have time to get a decent milo crop. But don't wait past this weekend to plant. Without some sort of weed control, you won't have bare ground to broadcast into come August or September.. I think you need to decide if you want a milo field...
