Last year, it was not planted, and it looked the same as now, give or take a few weeks, as the weather conditions are different, weeds came up, so did some grasses, there was quite a few patches of that tall stalky weed, that has thick green felt like leaves, actually a good looking plant, till it tops, has arms like cactus, gets 7 feet tall, birds like the seeds off it, those grew well it seems. I mowed it late, when it was tan and like straw.
This field does hold moisture, low/bottom area between 2 slopes, crops do fine when rain lacks, for the most part etc. So, figuring with this warmer weather, though we had been real dry until last weekend, weeds and grasses would start like the other nearby areas. Its hard to say what is going on, but I would think in a few weeks, something would be coming up as the farmer won't be planting this ground anymore, due to health and turning all his ground to hay, which is easier to do.
There is a small buffer strip, but I remember in the past the erosion on that field, large ruts, ditches, local guy with a D6 used to come repair those, then he started alternating strips of alfalfa and corn.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
