I lol'd HARD at "that dirt could fertilize your sand".

We planted yesterday ourselves in Waynesboro

So far so good.....passing 1/2 inch of good slow soaking rain. Looks like a lot more to come.

Way more promising start to plots than this time last year.

I wish we could have planted this weekend....This rain will work wonders for those that were able to plant..

The way its raining outside right now makes you want to just stand on the porch with a cup a coffee in your hand and watch it. You couldn’t ask for it to be any more ideal. Now if that real heavy chit over in south GA will just stay the hell away.

Dude got bashed for planting last weekend on a thread earlier, one weekend later we get a little bit of rain and it's damn wish my seed was in the ground!

We still havn't had but less than 1/8th of an inch of rain here in NW Fl.

I plan to try Throw n Mow for a few years, but dang I love the way a freshly tilled field looks and smells.

Just past the 1" mark as the rain picks up a little in intensity......Still falling nicely though.

WAY WAY too early for my preferences. If you are in extreme N AL or TN maybe but I like 2nd to 3rd weekend of October.

Nope, too early for NA too.

This about 2-3 weeks earlier than I usually plant but I’m focusing more on current conditions this year rather than traditional planting dates. We’ve obviously seen a sooner than normal swing to cooler temps and we might not see another rain event this ideal for a while.

Yea, I plant according to the weather, not the calendar. Acceptable planting dates are Sept. 1 at my location, which typically is early, but not this year.

Seeing some big ol' fat rain now as I'm quickly passing 1 1/2 inches....Hoping it shuts off somewhere between 2-3 inches.

Part of farming is adapting watching forecast not strictly relying on a set calendar date

257, how will this rain affect the corn harvest? Our lease has corn on it and it's not been picked yet. Some of the tallest stalks I've ever seen.

Shouldn't affect it unless the wind gets up and blows it down.

I think it's gonna be fine. Harvey got pretty rough and it stood. Don't think this one is any worse

Thanks, he told us he was planning to harvest during the first week of the month but that didn't happen. He's planning following it with winter wheat or canola, that's if he plants a winter crop at all.
