No spring planted crops? All in your fall?

Not where mallee farms
They seed a little ahead of us and harvest until Xmas , I think ? Around 8months to grow a crop
Correct me if I’m wrong

close enough

plant april may and depending on rains and timing of "finish to year" harvest early nov dec even january.

nearby town with very very similar weather 40 kms away back to 1880

What a wonderful place to farm, seed in April AND October. Harvest twice a year too!

It’s been foggy just about every day since the middle of March here.

Could mean good things for June!

It’s not foggy here today, for the first time in ages.

Half of Jan was foggy, mid April some sort of moisture may happen. Don’t see much coming, nothing of big significance.

A big lightning storm seems to end horse fly season some years.

Envioment Canada had some very optimistic forecasts here with Temps in the mid teens and well above freezing at night.
That's all gone now with forecast all below normal.

Doesn't smell like spring yet ground is covered in snow and it's -14 this morning. There will be no seeding in April for us. Barely see a crow or a goose yet and frogs and robins just a dream still

Lightning heats air to 50,000 degrees!









We need to study how to better harvest Nitrogen from rain storms and static electricity! Is this the 'secret' behind the folks injecting diesel engine exhaust into the seed bed during seeding? Apply that urea and nitrous oxides into the soil... !
