      Am I missing something? Going by a forecast a week away, what would you guys suggest I do? I don't get how this helps you to plan well???

      To hurry faster on slimy soils? To get it done faster even if not ready? I couldn't seed if I tried, so how does a forecast like this help me "plan better"?

      What am I missing here?

        Well I wish everybody luck. Havent had a dud here since 09 and that was just dry. Potholes are fuller than ever.
        Cant change a damn thing. Sometimes I think we pay a weather service just for wishful thinking.

          Even the crops seeded before 2010 rains never turned out. Roots water logged plants sick yellow, 17 bu/acre wheat. If it is that wet, the best was NOT to seed, but how do you trust weather forecasts? Take your best guess, we can't start yet anyway.

            We are seeding red lentils and 1field of durum. If they make it, we will have some early crop to harvest. We have seeded lentils before in April, once it turned out well, next time not really. It's always a crap shoot. Every year it seems we can get some early crop in before a rain, then stalled for a couple of weeks. Who knows? Wish we had a crystal ball.

              Deal furrow as long as we make it completly hillbilly.

              Well i seen a squirrel teasing a porcupine and when i shot at a jackrabbit it went left instead of right and we all know what that means no rain for a month but after that things should be lookin up because of the number of skunks on the highway and of course the way the willow trees started blooming this year. One final note we take coyote pelts as payment for our service and if anyone has a muffler for an eighty four chev silverado we will take that to. So until next week keep your powder dry and your women wet yee ha

                  Never seen garter snakes out so early. Drove over one yesterday. Any myth to this?

                    An April snake with a broken back, means an August frost to turn crops black.
