Cost bout $20 to build it all. Desperate times call for desperate measures I guess. Looks good though. What is your water source?

So you just have a nozzle spraying in one direction, and not a rotating sprinkler?

Last bit of watering from a well was 11 days ago. Owner got worried about his well running dry. Will see Sunday about condition of plants

With it as dry as it is, should I throw fert out with the seed or wait until a better outlook for rain? I haven't messed with a soil sample, will look at addressing that starting next spring/summer. Just gonna hope for the best this year

I would wait for rain unless you are using a stabilized nitrogen.

Sunlight will be one of your limiting factors, don't blame CNC for that.

I figure if there was enough sunlight for all the natural stuff, maybe a green field could grow. But, I have been wrong before

I stopped at a feed store Saturday to pick up fertilizer for my field. There was a sheet that had all the seed fert and lime prices on it. Beside the lime it said 200# per acre. He told me the extension agent said 200# would raise the ph by 1 point. I find that hard to believe but if true I'm in good shape. I put out 1000# in may on a little over an acre.

200lbs/acre is not going to raise the ph a point, but i'm sure you already know that. Probably meant 2000lbs/acre, if not county extension agent needs to be fired. 200lbs/1000 sq ft maybe.

I'm completely new to this whole deer farming thing. Can you give a detail on how you are preparing the fields? Are you literally just spreading seed and fertilizer?
