Hi fergienewbee: Similar event at my place. This land, I am told by the locals, has never been plowed. The field was used as a pasture most of the last 110 years since the railroad opened up this area. About 25 of those years, only hay was cut. Last year and 2 years ago I plowed some of it and planted soybeans(RR) since soil test indicated that was best. This year was a great year for growing hay and I finally noticed a very tall stem, almost 6 foot, of grass in the soybeans about early September. From what I found on the internet, it looks to be one of the "Tall" prairie grass plants. I may have uncovered dormant seeds when I plowed. I waited untill it was ripe and took entire plant into the house to use the seeds for planting next year. I'll have to pick a special place where it will be safe for the entire season. Looking forward to growing more. By the way, this area is called Buffalo Ridge (EL 2,000 Ft) and was considered mixed Tall and Short prarie grass country in SW MN. ag. My hobby farm address
