[AT] October hay!

[Spencer Yost]

While third cuttings of hay are not uncommon around here, they happen in September.  Having enough warmth and dryness to actually cut in October is unheard of. I guess climate change is good for something. It’s normally way too cool and the ground moisture is too high to cut in October.

We had a really bad dry spell in August and September. I just knew I wasn’t going to get a third cutting. Things just weren’t growing. Then we got a 2 inch rain at the very beginning of October and then above average temps. And the grass jumped.  So I got a light, but worth the effort, cutting this past week. 

The 3600 did good.   Still miss the 861 tho
