Wait till after a good rain when the soil is soft and moist then have at it. If you get another rain or two you will have a good stand of oats in 8-10 weeks. The rye will really come on in the spring. Works good when you get some rain.

Why oat's? Never liked oat's for this part of the country, prefer clover and rye grass makes great forage and hay next spring.
