Rushing to Beat Hurricane Francine

Bending 1/2" steel is no joke. Getting it done in hours instead of days should be considered a solid win.

“I am not particularly skilled in what I am about to do.” Sounds like something I should have on a t-shirt or a sign in my garage.

[@DowdleFamilyFarms]

Indeed!

Well we got a good rain here in Lowndes County, it will be interesting to see how this comes out.

[@DowdleFamilyFarms]

Lowndes County,. MS? We got almost a perfect rain. .7 Thursday, another inch Friday, sun Saturday, and I haven’t checked the gauge yet today, but enough I suspect to keep them germinating!

hand drill auger for mixing your seeds is way good.

[@DowdleFamilyFarms]

That’s what I typically use!

[@davidronan1677]

You have to heat it until it's orange

[@DowdleFamilyFarms]

Yes!

No winter wheat this year brother just cereal rye ?

[@DowdleFamilyFarms]

Winter wheat is half the price of cereal rye, but we don't get as much fall growth, which is what I'm looking for here.

@@DowdleFamilyFarms oh totally I was just wondering. Keep doing what you’re doing brother God bless. PS: You guys get a decent bit of rain out of that storm. Last week?

[@DowdleFamilyFarms]

@@mikehunt9392 We got just under 3.5 inches. It helped a lot, but we are still dry!

[@mikehunt9392]

@@DowdleFamilyFarms you’re lucky brother. It’s been super dry here for the last 75 days. We need some moisture no doubt my alfalfa and soy beans are doing absolutely amazing underneath third cut mulch didn’t harvest this year. Fingers crossed it’s gonna work out for germination. Going to drill my winter wheat next week hopefully depends on moisture. We’re supposed to get a little bit. I hope I can do that afterwards as always. God bless brother keep doing what you’re doing.
