How do you propagate rye?

To propagate rye, sow seeds directly in the soil in the fall for overwintering or in early spring. Prepare a well-tilled seedbed with adequate moisture. Plant seeds at a depth of 1 to 2 inches and ensure even spacing to reduce competition. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs within 7 days. Thin seedlings if necessary to prevent overcrowding, which can affect growth and yield.
