    A cool spell. Oh we must be in an ice age! It was hot and dry a couple of weeks ago. That must have been evidence of global warming then? These are examples of the logic that once led people to believe that the earth was flat. Are some of you guys that stupid? Just asking as not one of you has produced any credible scientific evidence against the overwhelming evidence of human caused global warming.

      No, you didn't but these type of comments are frequent on Agriville. GDDs are not irrelevant and frost is an ever present reality in high elevation spots in the foothills of the Rockies as well as elsewhere on the prairies.

        Rain?? What's that?? The 4/10 we had the beginning of last week is gone with the wind.
        Hay and grass are drying up. The crop that has germinated is just hanging on.
        Lots of guys commenting on how patchy their fields, after looking down on them from the sprayer.
        SF3 has cursed our area with a drought we didn't want or need.

            I mentioned we are behind last year in GDD. With the heat coming in later this week we will probably be about average for GDD by the end of June for the 2 months of May and June.
            It all depends when a guy was able to get the seed in the ground. Many were badly delayed because of mud.
            Some numbers for reference:
            Average GDD base 5 for Saskatoon area 1951-1980 May and June - 517
            Average GDD for 2000-2016, May and June - 459
            2016 GDD May and June - 608(way above average)
            2017 GDD May 1 to June 20 - 429

                And Saskatoon ALWAYS 4C warmer than in the sticks out here, BET WE are at 400 MAX, will feel like winter tomorrow!

                Grass as you JUST stated was dry winter, warm, wet cold spring, hot windy for a while, now COLD wet for a while...holy shit the CLIMATE is changing!!!!! Panic! Tax me quick!

                Earth to stupid guy...it always has changed, always will change and we can do SFA about it.

                    When calculating GDD or CHU's and applying to a crop, Do you start adding the units from,

                    -- a)the date when you planted,

                    -- b)from when it first starts emerging or

                    -- c)when the last seeds emerge?

                    Thinking of soybeans and the CHU my variety is rated at.

                    How close will maturity correspond to the CHU rating? Is it worth the time to keep track?
