Big Sky Country | I’ve been offered an assortment of test plot corn seed.
It’s a yr old.
Several varieties, 20,000 seeds per bag—I think. Some for grain, some silage.
I’d seed it either on pivot irrigated or flood irrigated ground. Lotta clay, gumbo type .
I am not in corn growing area, extremely ignorant about corn.
Last year, I did seed a little grazing corn.
Used an old disc drill, taped off every other opening.
Did ok and made the neighbors curious.
How much water does corn want?
Could broadcast some fert—-what and how much?
How deep to plant it? What spacing? Ground still a tad wet to work, could I just drill it in or better to farm it up? Soil probably just getting warm enuf.
The thought is to plant it where I got ditch running by, use electric fence to portion it off—-late summer.
Any and all input most appreciated!
