    But another rain and they are bumper in a week also????

    There are some people with no crop seeded and some with crop seeded but it's bad. I really feel for those people because it's already over as far as generating something good.

    And yes another week of dry does put those good crops at risk. I got some hail not sure what extent yet.

      Yea your right. One rain and we're back on excellent for late canola and later hrs and barley. Peas are in full flower 6 will be 4 then 2. So yes one rain still would change things but like I said in spring 4 separate one inch rains makes a excellent crop one in may then in June after spraying or in middle one early july and then one Ex week in Regina. Then dry till after harvest

        I cherry picked a couple photos of my nicest stuff trust me none of my neighbours have crops that look like that. My canary is headed out and looking like 10bpa. Flex header will be key. My cereals are looking like 30 tops. Neighbours with later seeded lentils will be lucky if they can get em on the cutter bar. Canola what a fk'ing disaster a one trick pony.

          Pictures of my crops would make you all cry. I could crowd-source maybe, there's an idea especially if I cut off one leg for the picture in the Canola field. Every crop that starts with a "C"is the craps.

                      Let those guys with the worst crops maintain some pride and dignity. Everyone wants to put their best foot forward.

                      I know I wouldn't want to post my worst spots. We have some sandy patches that are burnt.

                      What amazes me is how well our crop is hanging on(over all). It's not GOOD, but we'll hopefully(I'm sure we will) get something, and maybe more than some other guys. It's not over yet either. It has to fill and I'm not very optimistic it will even be average when all is said and done.

                      The soil surface is dust and below that is concrete and hopefully below that is a bit of reserve to carry this "less than mediocre crop" through to the point we can at least break even if no more rain comes before it is absolutely too late to do any good.

                      In general, as I've said before, we had "decent" establishment for the conditions we were given. So the fields have a crop in them. We've had basically no meaningful rain since that near 2 inch blessing June 14 and I'm sure some people never even got that.

                      I will have to set aside my pride and after harvest report the results, and if you want, then you can chastise me for crying wolf all spring and summer.

                      ps... got a couple of texts today for canola at $12.12 July and $12.25 NOW!!!

                      Hang in there everyone, and a special shout out to the cattle producers in the worst affected areas.
