First off sorry for the picture size, they are from my Cuddelink system. The pics are small enough that I'm sure I could do them side by side for comparison but I'm not that techie...
Both of these plots were planted on 10-18-2019 which was a day or two after we had the first rain in quite a while, both were planted with 75# wheat, 5# alice white clover, 3# balansa clover, 1#GHR, 1# PTT to the acre using a Woods minimal till seeder. Both were loading docks 5-6 years ago and have just sat fallow, the first one (Big Plot) was mowed in the summer, plowed with a spring tooth plow and harrowed to try and work the thatch in from the cab high weeds, it was then fertilized heavily and planted in a summer mix that got no rain and did zero. The second plot (East) was mowed about a month before planting and sprayed with gly and I intended to plow/harrow it but never had the time and it has not been fertilized at all either.
I was surprised how similar they look in growth since one was broken p and fertilized and the other had neither done.
I will actually have to post the second pics in a reply as this forum wont let me post the pics in the order I select, I really miss the old simple forum!!!
