Am going to oversees my soybeans with winter rye around Labor Day. Curious what rate per acre would work best?
I usually aim for a bushel/acre or a little more.
I'm putting down 2 bushels an acre. More concerned about timing???
The split second they start to yellow.
It's 3.5 hours away so I have to make a guess. Would you go Sept 1, 6, or later?
That's a make or break question that really doesn't have answer. If planted late- I've seen beans green into October. Now- on average & gambling.... Sept 6 or later. There isn't an answer to this other than - if u show up and beans are green, plan on another trip. If u wanna be safe- go later as rye will germinate late into fall. Very late actually.
Oh- u planted em- well that helps!! Yep- u'll be good on that planting date of beans. They should be yellowing in next week or 2.
