And then one day a strong rain came

[Baroque Brass]

It didn’t wash all the crops away but just that morning I‘d carefully and evenly distributed ten pounds of centipede seed into an area I’d spent a couple of days prepping. I’d already put out 700# of lime, then Saturday I harrowed it and put out 150# of 16-4-8 and 65# of kmag (0-0-22). All this was based on the soil analysis. I was hoping for rain but not 1.5” in about 30 minutes. I fear my carefully distributed seed was either washed away or washed to low areas and the grass will be spotty when it germinates. And centipede seed aint cheap at $40/#. I’m hoping it didn’t wash as much as I think it did.

Man, sounds like your luck and mine are kin to each other. Hopefully things will turn out good for you though.

We just had a Severe Thunderstorm Warning from the NWS for S. Barrow, parts of Gwinnett and my area of Walton until 6:18pm They said to expect heavy lightening as well.

Clouds look like it's going to be a gully washer.

HA! You read my mind on "wash all the crops away". I used to hear Patches on the radio all the time back in the day.

And at the age of 66 I felt I had the weight of the whole world on my shoulders. Oh, never mind.
