Disregard the concern. Between 4/25/2025 and 5/14/2025 the rye shot up approximately 2′ reaching a height between 4′-5′ on average. I also checked my records and I used a “variety” rye and not Elbon like my previous years. Whether the rye matured slower due to weather conditions or not being Elbon rye, I am not sure. All in all though, I…

He sent his samples to Apical Labs in Oregon (https://apical-ag-home.com/crop-nutrient-analysis/). Herb said they provided “proteins, sugars, phenolic (key nutrients – flavonoids, carotenoids, phytoalexins)…

Terminating Stunted Cover Crops: Scrap the Plan or Proceed as Normal?
Broadcast Winter Rye (2 bu/ac) & Crimson Clover (26 lb/ac) on October 14, 2024. The pictures attached are from today, April 25, 2025. This is my first time mixing cover crops together and I am concerned because the rye is not nearly as tall as it normally is planted alone. Last year at this time, the rye was between 36″ – 48″ tall and…
