Lockjaw, we quit trying to disk 3-4 years ago in that Shelby county chert. We’re 90% throw/mow and what is not, we bought a cultivator and rip, and then come back and rake with a rock rake to smooth out. We learned we’re just going to continue to battle broken pans and broken equipment disking over here.
We sprayed all plots today and will look to plant around rain sometime early to mid October. Considered spraying, bush hogging, spreading seed, then lightly discing with disc blades straight to cover seed? That’s what we are going to try this year since it was so dry, and didn’t have enough thatch. I’m nowhere close to planting as dry as we are, but when we do, this is what I’m going to attempt. I sprayed a few, mowed them, spread seed and lightly ran the disc through just to knock the seed through what thatch was there to the soil. It’ll be fine.

I’ll be later for sure. I just sprayed Friday. So I’m minimum 2 prob 3 weeks out. That’s fine with me. I planted last week of September last year and didn’t even get 0.1” on it for over a month. Didn’t look good at all. My club disked up yesterday and today and planting next weekend.

The problem with planting right now isnt seed sitting in dry ground but it has everything to do with a open cab tractor and not being able to see the field when I'm tilling or discing because the dust is so bad I made it through 5 fields a few days ago and had to quit because the dust was so bad
When I need expert advice I tend to talk to myself The older I get the better I used to be

Cleaned my tractor screens and filter twice. Should’ve been wearing a mask. I blew and coughed up brown for two days.

Seed is fine sitting in dry soil. Yup, just do it there I have time or make time. I’ve planted at Labor Day and I’ve planted some first weekend of November they always green and do well regardless. At the end of the day they always do good. Which I don’t know why I plant em cause I don’t hardly hunt em. Now far as my club, I just set a date and we do it rain or shine.

Seed is fine sitting in dry soil. Yep. Y'all remember that year maybe 2016 or so? It didn't rain a single drop for 67 days (I think) in West Alabama. I think we finally got rain in November or so and stuff still germinated reasonably well, but it was getting cooler by then.

Key is to plant and let it sit…where you get in trouble like rem said above is plant early, a big rain, and then a massive drought. This is also why we wait to plant around the first week or two of October.

Just sprayed yesterday. Probably plant first week of October, although October tends to be dry down here.
Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.
My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

Got all fields ready to plant but don't plan on planting until 3rd or 4th weekend of Oct unless we get substantial rain before then. I'm going to go ahead and get the seed and fertilizer on hand in case I need to get it done in a hurry Same here.
