It's not the contact, it's when does a seed possess the necessary traits to create a new plant. I have a neighbor that runs a summer haying operation and he leaves his last cutting, allowing it to mature in the fall. In the spring he discs the plants with remaining seeds plus what fell on the ground in the winter, in the March time line...when it's dry enough to get in the field and come June he has a bumper crop.
I want to do the same thing but with a winter, not summer crop, so the time line is much shorter...like the seed pods are prolific right now but I want to wait till they are mature enough to make me a winter crop (field density improvement) after I disc them this fall. I want to hay the existing crop as soon as the fields dry enough and mother nature shuts the spiggot off so I can harvest it and get it dried enough to roll without spoilage.
