We had an offer for some left over Canda seed to put in the ground and after agreeing to the exchange I was notified I could pick up at the TDA. The permits were issued and I was able to get 4 acres worth for the Visitors field.

A couple of us got up early to seed in the visitors field. I took a ph. test of reading and because its so late in season, plus rain was coming tomorrow we decided to go ahead and "sow the seed".

We broadcast spread the visitor field then rolled and packed the seed about an inch deep. Now we need water!
Visitors Field

Here's field one! Three acres square laced with 80 Lbs. Canda Hemp. It also has fertilizer, lime and plenty of Tennessee sunshine to get it off to a great start. I am worried the turkeys will soon find out we have hemp and might clean us out though..
If it will rain we should see sprouts in 3-4 days. We started this a year ago and now were just really getting started again with the actual growing. Its very exciting. These plant should be knee high in 4 weeks waist high in 6 weeks. we are going to find out. |
We have sprouts!
