Lot of us have food plots in that could really use a drink and it looks like the remnants of Gustav are going to give us a good drenching over the next few days. /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

If that doesn't get things up and growing...nothing will! /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif
 
Paul,

Please push it up to the NE corner.
You guys are hogging it all to yourselves down there. /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/sick.gif

Brassicas needs a good soaking and so does the rye and peas. /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cry.gif

Looks like rain will be from Pella south and east, then over to the Quad Cities and up to Chicago. Most of IA will miss it. My Rye is down near Fairfield so it is getting gentle rain right now, I am thankful!

Yep...nice n easy! Soakin' real nice... /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cool.gif
 
Been raining here ALL day my plots are loving it. But I need to still get some mowing done so I can kill some brome and try to get a few acres of rye in. Wish I could have seeded it last weekend.
 
Re: Now it's Ike!

Pays to watch the weather patterns....if you have some rye you would like to broadcast into some soybeans or you want to spread some urea on brassicas or cereal grains....just ahead of a BIG rain is just the ticket!

We have big rains coming even before Ike gets here...

Ike may only give us a "glancing blow"...so we'll have to watch the path...

Re: Now it's Ike!

We've had about 3" since last night, and it's still coming down at a steady rate. I'm hoping it'll let up a little, real soon.
 
Re: Now it's Ike!

PLENTY of Rain in MICHIGAN !! Glad i got the ditches cleaned up on Monday !!
 
Re: Now it's Ike!

I need it to quit so I can get my rye in. I need to disc it first and clay doesn't work well when wet.
