    How are crops doing ?

    Lots of crop must be up or just about in the southern Prairies. How is it handling this frosts night after night ?

    So far they are doiing well. I don't know of any canola in that is up but lots of cereals-triticale, wheat, barley look great. I never worry with my cereals if they get smoked with a good frost. If the plant is healthy and planted with a good nutrition package, it will have zero effect on them. This year we had the mother of all tests when one night the temp went down to -9.4c here in Tilley. Granted at that time my HRSW and triticale were only emerging, but the fall triticale was in 2 leaf stage, made it through and it is still green and growing. Would have hated to see the trainwreck if there was canola or soybeans up at that point, however.

      Hardly had any frost overnight here - two or three nights of light frost is about it.

          Nothing up here but my blood pressure.

          Will just be going into the small seeded crops next.

          Next week finally looks like spring/early summer.

          Lets see what the following week brings.

          Havent sprayed an acre yet. But will from now on.

          Living the dream.
