We are getting some now. Down south is right in line. My house is on the upper edge. That darn storm turned too far south at the end.
our hay is dry is hasn't even been cut...sighOn the other end of things - we have stayed dry for 4 days-they mowed Sunday. Our dry hay should get rolled up tomorrow!
To be fair tho, they likely needed it worse than we did.south Texas should be getting some rain today unfortunately, it doesn't look like it's going to make it up here...sigh again
I don't know man...I know we need some awfully bad here...walking out in the pasture sounds like walking on potato chips.To be fair tho, they likely needed it worse than we did.
WE're not far from you and we desperately need some rain7 hours clearing brush with a chainsaw yesterday...got up to about 105 degrees...not a drop of rain in sight...at least another week of 100+...sigh...weather.com says chance of rain in the 20% range on the 25th through the 28th...not confident...42% chance on Sept. 3...we'll see...south Texas should be getting some rain today unfortunately, it doesn't look like it's going to make it up here...sigh again
The real "horsey people" will not!!@MurraysMutts do horse people actually feed the johnson grass to their horses there? Here, it is not even considered.. they won't buy hay with johnson grass in it. Ours looks about like that.. and the cows do good on it. We have it invading some of the orchard grass fields... we will usually roll the outside 2 windrows if there is much in it, then sq bale the good stuff for sale to the horse customers. But the darned stuff will take over if you aren't careful.
Sure would like to cut mine this yearThe real "horsey people" will not!!
Only the finest Bermuda for them!
Neighbor down the road keeps horses. They are some of the pickiest people I know when it comes to hay! He's constantly spraying, fertilizing, walking around the pasture pulling "undesirable" plants.
He's got a pretty nice pasture. I asked if he was gonna cut it again (2nd cutting) and his reply was....
It's not very good. I don't think so.
I just don't get it. Cut it on the shares. Sell the unneeded hay and make a dollar or two. I can't imagine putting all that time, money and effort into making such a nice hay pasture and only cutting it once a year!!
I don't blame him. I'd burn the hole field to not listen to one of them.The real "horsey people" will not!!

Prescribed burns were every year up until last year when they set the railroad ablaze!I don't blame him. I'd burn the hole field to not listen to one of them.
