When we typically cut it, it covers everything in a rust coloed dust. Not sure for the technical term for the stage. We just put some peas, tritical, and oats in the silo this week.

While the peas and oats weren't quite as far as we like, the tritical just took off with all the moist hot weather we've been having. We got 7 loads off about 6 acres. Originally it was just going to be peas & tritcal, but I started running low on seed and I was already done seeding down the oats, so I dumped in a few bags of oats so I could finish the feild.

So far i think the feed is turning out nicely in the silo. We put it up with 1/2 bag of dried molasis per load to sweeten things up a bit, and the girls are starting to eat it better now that it's cooked in the silo for almost a week.
