TheMiz54 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Was wondering if it's too late for a throw and now of WR into a old hay field? It looks like we should still have temps in the 70s. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYBowhunter Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Too late, wont have enough time to mature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LET EM GROW Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 To me its late to benefit this year, you Can try it. Farmers are still planting grains. Might not get but a couple inches tall. "Spray" Throw and Mow may work, Your also going to have to put water to it though. quite late for this though IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkId say go for it I threw some winter rye seeds on a wet atv trail 10Days ago... 7 days after I did it I went back and they were 2 inches tall already Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will_C Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I think you'll get some growth. I have a cousin who plants rye in his no-till corn fields after harvest. I think he planted in mid October last year and had 3-4" of growth by gun season. Not much for food plot use, but the deer were in it and it's good for the soil for next year.

Adkhunter1590 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Temps aren't going to get too cold within the next 2 weeks at least so you might be able to get some decent growth. A lot of it will depend on how much moisture you have. I'm dry as a bone here and wouldn't think about planting anything because of it. If we had been getting some decent rains the last month, I'd try it but for me it would be way too dry. We do have some rains moving in over the next week so that might help. If you don't mind the possibility of wasting money on seed, toss it out and see what happens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldebona Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 We overseeded some of our plots with it 10 days ago. It has germinated and looks good. I always overseed my veg. garden with it in late October and it germinates nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
