COVID-19 in Sask.: new cases exceed 500, with 20% in kids 0-11 years old

Poping rocks with an excavator today on barley stubble that's had 2.1 inches of rain since harvest, dust starts at 8 to 20 inches down.

Grew mostly 255 and some 340. Both ok. No real winner yield wise but the 255 stands better for straight cut and won’t change until I try something different. Usually new ones are only a quarter just to test the waters. Grew a lot of 341 last year and it was a nightmare to cut. Had to put in flex mode to get it all. 345 last year wasn’t much better so we avoided those 2 this year. Suppose to be a couple new ones coming for next year so might try one of them.

I'm on the other end of that, I want a canola that falls down tangles up and makes a mat so thick that none can shatter, and is somewhat insulated from frost. I just dread having a standing upright almost ripe crop waiting for a wind, even with pod shatter varieties.

I want the old varieties back that fell over, didn't even need pod shatter traits then, instead they keep bragging about the standability.

Mostly fall field work today while we wait on the flax. Might sneak in some Elk hunting.

I wonder what it is like to have time to wait to finish harvest. Usually a day or two before the first snowfall when we wrap up here!

How do you do that?
Serious question, I’ve even had enough and I don’t contribute much to this site.
Either I need to block some of the COVID related obsessed people or move on from this site.

Desktop site. Click on user. Option there.
Not going to debate the value of free speech or knowing thine enemy.
Just don't spend time or money on input I don't align with. Like not buying the Seducer or Macleans.

Only had a few hours to finish one year when the alternator crapped out on the 760 , but took the sunglasses off and figured out the alternator was working. Next morning there was 5 inches of snow dripping off the header.

The covid deniers have gone silent as Alberta changes direction in a dramatic and big way. Reality has hit hard in the land of milk and money.

How long till the Sask Party figure out they are on the same path as Alberta?

Nobody “denying” that covid is a real thing. Definitely not as bad as you make it out to be though.

Everybody knew this was coming. People have been saying that we will be locked down again once summer is over for quite some time. Fall is the start of cold season.

A couple years ago, the alternator went on the 750 Lexion on the last field with about 20 swaths to go. The rotor bearing had gone on the 9230 case at the beginning of the day. Ended up finishing with no lights on the combine, and the grain cart following the combine up and down the field. You can say we limped over the finish line that year!

We never have time, this year is an anomaly. You simply can't force combine flax, better to wait till December and take it when it's frozen.
