two hours of tilling, three yards of compost, and 25lbs of oat seeds later... and the first cover crop is planted. I hope to grow two covers on this part of the patch. Oats first for biomass - then cut, but leave stubble and plant peas and clover for the winter.

I still have the 1566 Rodonis growing at the end of the patch. Because....lol...I have an August 6th pollination growing on it. Growing it for seeds mainly, but if it some how makes it up over 500lbs - and it has stopped growing - I'll take it to a weigh off and cheat some poor kid out of a 25 dollar check..
