Planting Rye Straw 2020! Day 1!

This is a real-time, first-person diary of planting cereal rye with a rented Great Plains 706 NP no-till drill, not a product review. It covers loading seed by hand, setting seeding rate (~160 lb/acre), checking seed depth and soil contact, running the drill in float mode over rough ground, and running out of seed mid-field. Useful for owners curious about actual no-till drill operation and real-world planting logistics, less so for spec comparisons.
