Yes it is. The rain kickstarted it 5 weeks ago. We topped it up with a little bit of irrigation. And yes, now it is ready for cutting. In a normal season we would be mowing the lucerne every 28 days from November - April. This is far from a normal season and we are lucky to be getting this one go at it.
Fair bit of work attached to that.
ReplyDeleteRain at the right time?
ReplyDeleteYes, just enough to kickstart this paddock of lucerne.
DeleteYay!
ReplyDeleteYou're mowing lucerne? Is that the same lucerne that appeared after the rain a while back?

DeleteGosh that was quick.
ReplyDeleteWow. That was fast!
ReplyDeleteIt looks nice and green. Hope you keep on getting those timely rains.
ReplyDeleteOh so nice and green
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see a lush field after you've pictured so many that struggled. Here's hoping for more timely rains!
