    After that frost, all our crops would benefit from a sweet inch.
    I hope you get your sweet inch but here that would be a bitter inch that would close the seeding window for most up here.

        0% here. Got 0.25 inch rain in a thunderstorm yesterday. Area is less than 5% seeded. Need to spray badly. Was one sprayer trying in the area yesterday before the rain. Still spring thrash out there in this region.

          What a spring of extremes! Sounds like NOBODY is happy!
          Is there a happy place, perfect seeding and germ???

              Older farmers here were talking about years they didn't turn a wheel till after the long weekend. Unusual but not unheard of. Best of luck to those struggling to get going

                Seems we are either ducking the clouds or ducking the frost or some other monster.

                  First seeded field..canola on wheat stubble..was wet and lumpy..now dried right out..zero germ..
                  Ugly thought...need a shower.biting tongue...

                  Seeding in MUD is a DUD...

                      That would me ME...older no wiser farmer...worst case...
                      1974, late in May, needed to HARROW first, just to dry top a bit to pull cultivator, MUD and Water lots of guys stuck! Press drill days!
                      As luck would have it, a brand new Case 2470 saved our ASS, 2wd pulled SFA that spring.
                      So how did crop turn out mudded in late?
                      Froze in the fall, pepper canola, feed 50 lb wheat, yields SFA. Lets hope 2017 is NOT a repeat.
