I got my Sanctuary plot put in last Sunday. Forgot to take a picture.... it’s dry at our place. Zero rain in September at our lease. This plot was 2 acres.
I also got the lanes and ditches planted at clearcut spot. About .5 acre. Wheat, oats and a clover mix for the lanes. I have about 1.5 acres left to do here. I have some Johnson grass growing in the big field so there is a potential great thatch layer. Will try the throw and mow method. Waiting on a good forecast of rain!

I got caught up moving round bales out the field until dark for the last 2 days, and didn't get to throw and mow ahead of this rain! I will post pics when I get round to it.

Breck and I planted Sept. 22 and caught our first measurable rain last Friday and another shower yesterday.
I plant the same seed every year that includes: Winter Peas, Oats, Rape, Chicory, 3 blend clovers, vetch and purple top turnips. These seeds are not mixed up in a blend due to the different plant depths needed.
I will be heading to the river after work today to get in a sit with the north wind. Hopefully I will notice a green tint to the plots....and will get progress photos.
A few photos of the Sept. 22 seed slinging day.
Best of luck to all.

14 days growth @ dairy plot #1
100# per acre “top notch”
25# forage oats
1.5# brassicas along border
This plot was 10’ tall mullet. I sprayed and left dead for about a month. Rolled it to make a mat and broadcast straight on top. DONE
had less than 2” rain in 90 days.
I used same mix, different fertilizer @ “the cotton mouth”. But shredded the duff vs rolled. It wasn’t as thick. So far I think the dairy was TOO thick. Still early. Haven’t checked others
