Some one should have informed mother nature that the September full moon is Sept 24. Twenty days out, whats a madder for you?

Was wondering the same thing. Dang moon!

I wonder if there was a skim of ice on any of Input Capital's canola streams?

Anybody know the BRIX levels in their respective crops? Target a BRIX of 10 or more in wheat and barley. Higher the BRIX more it can withstand frost. Brassicas similar.

Yes its very cute to know the brix of your crop at all times. Yes I have a refractometer and garlic press. Mother Nature affects brix more than any other factor. Spray some kelp, humates, compost teas or whatever the hell you do no need to harp on us. In my experience its the guys that assume everyone else is doing it wrong who are the most out to lunch.

for hemp research. Competing with soys I guess.

Billion or million?

Billion or million?

Some zeros out of place there. The entire Canola industry is only worth 26.7 billion per year. That we are investing one third of that
