    Friday crop report on a Thursday.

    Well as you can see I slipped up today. Got busy doing things cleaning yard and doing a fricking dance, because it rained a extra 2 tents last night and we got to a 1 inch total rain for the three days. Each soaked in quick and the last actually got the layers to touch.

    I’m excited because our roots are going down an now if we get one or two more showers we could do ok if a heat wave it’s in July.

    Total for year since snow left 2.5 inches.

    Did here some had hail and yes the heavy rain is causing problems.

    Storms are strong and damaging when they get going.

    Ok here we go.

    Hrs/durum is any where from heading to flag to first tiller in our area. Most are done spraying and waiting on fungicide app if they do spray. Lots saying wait see. Early wheat did have issues with the heat and extreme dry and winds. Smaller heads. Later by five days seeding this was a billion dollar rain.

    Oats is done spraying and growing nice.

    Flax is done spraying bu lots are thin do to dry and windy conditions.

    Barley is thinner than usual but starting to fill in. Lots done spraying and waiting on fungicide. Heads on some fields coming out.

    Peas look goon except fields that were peas to many times. Even if it’s dry the 8 year rule works. Odd flower so fungicides will happen. Lentils love the dry and heat doing real good.

    Canola is all over the map but most have a good catch and odd one flowering or bolting. The last spray for weeds happening on double spray liberty. Most in our area is liberty now.

    Pastures needed the drink but need some more. Hay first cut is ok on newer seeded fields but old hay fields first cut will be poor.

    Again rain was welcome by all. It is all over the map as we are going no general rain just showers or thunder storms. You catch one your a genius.

    Be careful and enjoy summer. It’s a great time to live here.

        These are actually virtual volunteers. They don't have to actually do anything but have a zoom meeting with these crook founders and they get paid, plus the kick back to sophie. Tax payer funded alimony.

        You can watch the actors right here a day after the announcement. Watch that body language from the happy first couple. Jokes on us.

                That is horrible. Hopefully everyone is safe and can start rebuilding. Mother nature sure is humbling at times.

                  CaseIH that is awful.

                  Being most of our land is fairly close we lost 21 quarters to a hail storm.

                  We had the stupid hail company that year come out and defer it till August before they settled. REally pissed me off.

                  The storms this year seem to pack one heck of a punch. Last week Brandon huge amounts of rain and hail and tornado. Calgary Before. Southey with hail that was like a snowstorm.

                    Nuts. Too bad about the hail. Sorry to hear that.

                    As far as Weather Network, if it wasn't on the toy radar it didn't happen

                      .9" last few days gets us to 2.35" this year. Crops look great for the amount of rain we've had. Subsoil moisture was great, crops well rooted. Sprayed fungicide on peas, barley and one wheat field yesterday. All look great, barley and wheat a bit short but very even with good sized heads. Starting canola this morning, will see how it looks. Couldn't make up mind on Canola fungicide, but looked at forecast for humidity and showery days ahead, better protect it. There is a pocket SF3 we are in with very little rain, big difference from a lot of the rest of the west. I think this rain was just in time.

                            Sorry to hear that case. Not a good feeling to see all the work get destroyed in a few minutes.
                            I know it’s a cliche but as long as no one got hurt that’s what counts.

                            And yes some better warning should be in this day and age of technology.

                              Was both sides planted the same day and depth? The soybeans sure are showing a difference.
