My bet is you will be astounded by the results, especially with that heavy of a seed rate followed by good rain.

I'm photo documenting my third year of no till on my three small plots with pictures every month from March 2017 and planned through March 2018. You will see the results here next March (A Year In The Life Of A No-Till Plot ).

This was my seed rate this year, which is about double what I've used the first two years. Those years were perfectly satisfactory but I decided to increased it just for insurance because our deer population is on the upswing. Note that on my North Plot I'm experimenting with wheat on one half of the plot and oats on the other half. Everything else was across the entire plot. I'll be putting exclusion cages on each half. I was lucky on the cost of the fertilizer by catching Walmart selling it off at a greatly reduced end of summer clearance price.
