I planted Cereal Rye Seed last weekend. Never tried a cover crop before. I should have planted it a week or two sooner. We are having a cold spell - finally. Not sure if rye seed will germinate at 33/34 morning temps/ degrees.... Time will tell. My 22 chickens are not happy that they got got locked out of the Pumpkin Patch. They were loving scratching at all the vines, old tomatoes and eggplants. Now it just their coop and run area -otherwise they would eat all the grain seed. I prepped a soil sample before I seeded the patch, it's drying before I submit to Western Labs.
