Isn't the weather in Indy wonderful? I did the same thing, mowed down about 3 acres of grass hay here in Danville, after watching the local weatherman on channel 13 show the "future cast" and the rain going north of me and with the "scattered" chance of storms predicted I gambled.. and lost.
It monsooned if you ask me. The weather forecast was way off in my opinion. I blew that 3 acres I'm sure. I'm out of hay so I'm sorta forced into cutting and since the hay ground is not my property I can't turn my animals loose on it. I do have my own pasture, but I can let them on to graze just yet (reseeded with oats/pasture mix. Not mature enough)
I just hate to waste it. I have no doubts now that it'll rain all this and next week and I won't get the hay that is down dry enough to bale before it browns out to nothing. At least I have other acreage that I can cut (it's all gone to seed now) even if its down on the nutrition factor.
How long have you guys let hay lay in the field before its been spoiled to the point its not worth the trouble?
If I just owned a tedder... guess that needs to be on my list.
Good luck to the rest of you central Indiana hay farmers.
