Too hot for doggie feet here too.....I want to go water the girls...but the farmer and workers are here.....guess I'll hang for awhile......:watering:

They've got the field stripped...turned over and they are flooding it...all in 24 hours......never seen that before...
Got me curious what they are planting.

Although....if they turn it over and water...they'll probably have another field of wheat without replanting....:biggrin:
Hopefully no bare soil..
Only time I had bare soil on my farm was when I set up my garden. I knew the old spot thar was there when I bought was too small...only about half an acre. With the placement of my natural gas wellhead placement, I could only go so wide, so it had to be oblong. That actually worked out well for irrigation.
I had to move a lot of soil to get proper drainage for the hay field and the garden. Once got the entire area shredded, decomposed fer a bit, it got deeply plowed and disc harrowed to get a better idea of the layout. I had to scrape up topsoil and move t aside with my dump truck to place back on areas I had to lower. They got lowered enough to accommodate the stored topsoil to be level. It was a lot of work but it had to be done. I could tell that a previous owner/s had bare soil in their gardening practices. The loss of topsoil formed a bowled garden. This was done mostly in early fall. The new part of the garden was cover cropped with the biomass just chopped and dropped for three seasons. Lots of legumes and plants with bulky root systems. Root feed crops were grown and what the cows and deer didn't dig up and eat were just left to the soil. It's the best way to get large amounts of organic matter into the soil. A hell of a lot less labor-intensive!
The only times I had problems was usually early spring when large amounts of rain have fully saturated the pasture and then get another big rain. I've seen most of that gently sloped, but pretty flat, pasture look like a damn lake! Sometimes it would take a few days to drain the pasture thru that garden area.

Veggies seem happier! Hoping daily spray with neem oil for a week can knock out the spider mites! Been using the hose on mist to spray em off really good to knock down old webbing and stuff so I know how well it’s working! :rolleyes1:
