For those of you who saw my post a little over a week ago about taking the closing wheels off the drill here's how it looks now. We opened the seed trench an inch and a half deep to cleanly cut through the existing previous plant biomass and did not close up the seed slot so that the tiny little seeds would take root and emerge out of the trench as you see in this picture.

Pro Tip: Roll at the right time. We still have 15 acres of pumpkins to plant. It's getting dry and no good rain in the forecast. So it's time to terminate the cover crop so it doesn't suck out anymore moisture.

First public viewing of our new 4-in row spacing, precision drill. Plant Right, row units and Precision Planting meters on each row for singulation of hemp and flax seeds. It's about 2 weeks from completion and we will be putting on a grain tank after this concept has been proven to be commercially viable.

Had about 30 people show up today for our fiber flax field day sponsored by the PA Flax Project. Looked at three varieties, three seeding rates, four planting depths, and 2 fertilizer rates.

Did you know that flax only flowers for 6 hours or so during the day? And each flower only lasts one day. But it sure is beautiful!

Just planted 40 species of pollinating and beneficial insect attracting plants. This is a key strategy to successfully eliminating insecticides. #biologicalzoo #regenerativeagriculture @GreenCoverSeed

This past Saturday was an interesting day for weather. The difference between the high temperature and the low temperature was only 3.2°. that is highly unusual!

The 4-inch Precision #hemp planter is taking shape! Row units are mounted and now the process of installing the @PrecisionPlant seed meters on each row begins. You can see one already mounted on the left.

They say that "farming is in your blood" ... Apparently this is how that happens, it starts at a very early age! And the bonus is that we are using "naked" seeds that don't have any pesticides on so they are very child friendly!
