[QUOTE="lavacarancher, post: 1295696, member: 9198"] Just curious. What kind of seed oats did you use? There is a huge difference in the price of real seed oats, those with guaranteed pure oat seed, and oats that are sold as feed. Most folks around me use the later and take their chances. I've done it a time or two and the results are not nearly as good as when I use real seed oats. I like to get my winter forage crop in by the middle of October IF I have the moisture. Earlier than that it's too hot and much later it might be too cold for the seed to germinate. I use a drill to put my crop in with, not broadcast because, as someone said above, soil contact is also pretty important. Just my :2cents: . [/QUOTE]
