Wow, the longest day of the year is tomorrow and some still haven't had a decent rain.
Were in the piss shower phase where every night some shower hits some place. Does nothing but get your truck dirty, but rain is grain and mud is a dud.
Had eye surgery to fix a ****ed up tear in my retina.
Eyesight is so important. I grazed three power poles and couldn't judge distance this spring. All is good now.
Crop report.
Wheat that's seeded early is starting to show signs of hitting the gas on strong soils. Weak areas are showing signs of stress. We need a rain. Cereals are still doing good but head size is determined and lots wont be happy.
Barley is also aproaching the stage the needs a very good drink. So far its hanging on and roots are going down.
Peas and lentils are filling in and flowering if peas will begin next week. Lentils are a week out.
Flax is filling in nice and more seeded than I thought would be.
Lots of Canary seeded and its looking not bad.
Canola is out of the flea beetle destroying stage and is filling in rows. Some might miss cabbage and bolt very soon if no big rain arrives. If it rains these roots are down deep so could handle a bit more heat in July.
So we need a nice two to three-day slow rain.
Drew says some will get lets hope all.
Canola is going up in price due to usa the fuel use. Canola is not in program but companies that make margarine need our oil.
Off to finish spraying Canola as its a calm day for once.
Share your area story please.
Diesel up due to Iraq war. Yea lets bring in off shore oil down east.
