Planted soybeans and buckwheat

[Pygmy]

Last Friday I planted 2.5 acres of soybeans and 3 acres of buckwheat.

 

It was as dry as a popcorn fart until the rain we got last night, and I did not expect germination until we got some moisture.

 

Hopefully now that the soil has been wet down well ( we got an inch of rain last night)  things will be sprouting soon.

 

Under proper conditions, soybeans should germinate in 7-10 days and buckwheat in 4-5 days.

Seems like you got it in at right time!

I just sprayed bean plots today...between rain days...Will hit them with a light dose milorganite..rain washed it down too much...they are getting nipped...but could be chucks or rabbits..not sure  it's just on field edges.....
