Especially when the plant is less than 4-inches tall. They line-up in a field and go lockstep, up one side and down the other like a lawnmower!

Well, I followed all your advice. I got oats disced in yesterday. How long does it take for them to usually germinate?

Seven to ten days. Maybe as long as long as 14 days. Depends on moisture and soil temperature, but probably not an issue right now.

Both plots were small. One had almost as much rock as soil and the other had dormant weeds. I disced each pretty heavy, broadcasted seed, lime and fertilizer and used a drag harrow behind my 4 wheeler. Hopefully I get some growth to disc in for summer annuals in mid May

I planted mine last Saturday. I checked them yesterday but didn’t see any sprouting but hope to see some next Saturday

I would expect so with the warming trend this coming week.

2 week update. Still no oat germination. Both Saturdays I’ve been at the farm turkeys were in the plot. I am sure I got a fair amount of seed covered but looks like the turkeys are scratching hard to get what they can.
Spring + turkeys = buy license and grab the 12 gauge
