Food plot prep work is beginning

I finished putting the sprayer together, had to replace the manifold, pressure gauge, regulator and shutoff. Found large o-ring for the main filter/stainer and tighten the bungs as I couldn't locate replacement gaskets for them. The new control required a new bracket mount them. It should be ready to go next year now. Used Harness for the first half and then got some Harness Ultra in that last batch. I couldn't find much info on the HL, I hope the safened sorghum seed is fine with it. This was all for not, if the birds dig the seeds out and eat them. It was a week since I planted and on a quick inspection the seeds hadn't germinated in the dry dirt. Looks like we have some chances for rain this week....thundering now actually.
 
Checked the rain gauge before leaving for work...almost a solid INCH! That will get the herbicide activated and the seed growing. Now if the birds don't dig it up, we will have winter feed for them.
