    In this case, rain takes grain.

    We never got near the amount of rain some other people got but we are still obviously getting too much. Some low lying areas in cereals are yellowing. Canola is holding out pretty good but how much longer. Flax, of course, is yellow and stunted around sloughs. Yellow mustard has bolted and budded, on the verge of coming into bloom--probably give it a fungicide to protect what is there since alot of other crop won't do very well. As much as I hate wind, turn it on and bring on a bit of heat.

    If your bitching about that I doubt you'll find sympathy. They aren't flowering and I dont see dirt. Get over it. There's worse around and you aren't the first to lose some acres. By no means a write off yet.

        Holy crap mcdon, I'm not looking for any sympathy, what nerve did I hit. And I started by saying we never got the amount of rain others got. I've never seen peas look like this on my farm. Just showing others what it's like .... the difference of the plants between affected and good areas of the field. I know there is nothing I can do about it and am not "bitching" like you claim.

          nice photos.
          thanks for sharing.

          hope the weather warms up and dries up for us all.

          good luck

            You gotta wonder Farmaholic if those spindly yellow stunted plants will produce even one seed.

            It seems to me so borderline right now with 3 more days of rain forecast. How can those roots sit in that cold water for days and weeks and survive?

              Thank you sumdumguy. You hit the nail on the head, full recovery is a dream. Look at the difference between the plants and roots. Toast.

                Have a pulse specialist look at the complete plants with nodules.

                It may be root rot and a lack of new from fixation shouting down.

                I see fields in our area the same with no flooding and a lack of direct sunny days.
                Do some digging and root washing... Check the nodulation.

                All the best.

                    Did you find out anything about anphomyces?

                    Its a dead loss if that's the cause.

                    Good pictures. Looks like some yellowing. Not bad compared to what I see here.
