Lentils, Wheat, Barley Up

The lentils, wheat, and barley I seeded in the field are up. As Court and I were driving down the road, we noticed nice neat rows of green. I had to get out and stomp through the mud to take a look and sure enough, 10 days after planting, my grains have popped through the soil.

Though the recent weather has prevented us from getting to a lot of things in the field, it's been pretty perfect for the things we already have seeded. We had moisture, heat, and now more moisture. Heat is sure to come. Then we get to watch everything explode (including the weeds).

  1. So cool! Also, I just saw in that last post that you guys are expecting! That's so wonderful. There's nothing so sweet as a new baby. When are you due?

  2. Thanks! Late September is when little Tumbleweed tumbles out. They start weeding right away, right?
