Started banding urea yesterday, very wet sticky soil. And by the sound of it we are one of the DRY spots. It must be ridiculously wet for most of you. Yes, this is unusual for the semi arid prairies.
A dryer is used every year here also, Aug heat/low humidity dries in no time. That's how climate varies. Aeration rarely works here. Great week ahead, so there is a good chance to harvest even if days are short. Stay safe.

This is our third dryer we owned since 1974! I counted how many more days I could have went this fsll drying cured wheat or cxnola snd came ip with two maybe three! Drying now versus dec you dry now airation is just fluff to keep it from heating!
All guys with dryers are going yesterday! Some looking to upgrade dryers this winter!maune this shit is here to stay! You adapt!

Revision. After moving to a distant field. It appears there is enough wheat that isnt drying. Hopefully dry enough by this weekend.
Dryers very rare here. People seem to prefer to buy more combines.

Heres a dumb question for you guys that deal with shit.

For flax if ends up getting cold will it "freeze dry"(is that even a real term,i've heard it?)

Cotton - we have done it but should be -15c or colder.

A few years ago there was a ton of canary in the field late into the year. It got into November and got cold and the canary actually got drier over time, without any heat during the day. My memory was that it froze and stayed frozen during the day and the moisture content gradually went down until it was dry. Essentially freeze dried.
