      Too late for me. I lost a bin. Never had it heat before. Likely going to average 3% heated. Not sure of options.

      I was the guy that was going to turn complete bins.

      Just didn't get done in time. It was 10.5 and hot when I combined it.

      I knew better than to wait this long to turn it.

              Just got back from the kids Halloween party and talking with my neighbours 5 of them have lost a bin so far of canola. It is panic in our area it's all going up in smoke. Lots was 8.5 to 9mt. Anyone think it has to do with the 4 stages of crop growth.

                Stuff of nightmares, one heated bin pays for a lot of aeration and monitoring. Can never be completely comfortable with grain in the bin.

                  Have gone full paranoid around here with stored grain. All cooled to below 20C as fast as possible. Then monitored constantly.
                  Sorry to hear about the heated grain.
