I took a chance cutting some weak grass hay Sunday May 27. This field was to switch to soybeans, but had grown up pretty good, so I thought I would bale it off before we sprayed it. Just finished yesterday.
It was nearly ready Wednesday afternoon 5/30, but I had to work that evening, and the rain started. After about five trips over it I got half of it up Saturday June 2 before the dew settled in.
