DUST & DUST & diesel smoke

Got my brassica seed spun on the foodplot tonite. Then (since I don't have a culti-packer) I set the disc straight and ran the seed in.

TALK ABOUT DUST!!!!!!!! There was absolutely no breeze and the dust just hung thick. I had to wait minutes between passes just so I could see where to go next. I'll be blowing my nose brown for days!! crazy.gif

Now...........let it rain!! grin.gifgrin.gif

Strut, I hope you didn't get your seed too deep with the disc? frown.gif

A friend of mine did the same thing and got them too deep and they never came up. I guess they rotted before they could sprout.

Don't think so. That's the way I've always done it. I just keep the angle off the discs and keep my speed moderate. I also keep the lift axle on the disc part way down so it doesn't run too deep. I should be in good shape.

Fly...........The IH always runs good for us. It's a joy to farm on that machine!! Good luck spiffin' up the C!! grin.gifgrin.gif

I figured you knew what you were doing. Just thought I'd mention it. We sure hated doing all that work on my buddies and it not come up. "You live and learn".
