    The last 15% of it went out after the seconf cut. I got most of it out in the spring, so there wasn't much left after the first cut.

    Probably less than 10k gallons left in the bottom of the pit, needs water to soften it up before i can get it spread so as soon as we get a decent drop of rain off the roof into it i will spread it, and let some more water into it again

    way too dry and warm for it. tanks are about 60% full. will empty them in sept, have a second cut of silage due at the emd of this month so i'll put in out then. empty the tansk twice a year, once in spring usually in feb or march and again in sept/oct before i re house the stock

    Normal deadline is 15th of October, which I presume isnt extended. FYM can be spread to the 1st of November

    Got majority out in February, then the rest in early june after first cut, but hadn't enough to cover all ground cut. One less thing to be thinking about ;)

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.
