        Finally making some progress in drying things up a bit.
        Sure the top is dry but the crop is rooting in nice. Good for a couple weeks yet without rain.
        Although the wind could go away.
        My experience with really wet ground and then it turns dry is the roots get stranded. Any wet hole is the first to burn up when it turns dry. As for the wind come to southern Alberta. Wind warnings don't even start here till 100km a hour

                  Saskfarmer , your in a dry spell , not a drought. Hope you get rains on weekend .
                  We were as dry last spring , till the end of June . Some of our land had less than 3/10 May / June . That's still not a drought . It's a dry spell.
                  I hope you get rain before we did last year.

                    Your correct I am not in a drought. It wet snowed heavy early on then mist on and off in may and now june has been just mist showers. So no its not a drought. Its drying down real nice germ is great on most fields odd poorer spot is thin but one rain and were on our way. I always said you only need 4 one inch rains to grow a crop in Canada. One after seeding one before spraying one in July and one two weeks before its harvest to finish it off.

                    Its the weather pattern thats funny this year. That i know has changed hopefully it moves a little back.

                      Moisture possibilities for the weekend are diminishing.
                      Anybody's bin doors slamming shut yet?
                      Or are they blowing in the wind?
