Finished nice first quarter of peas and delivered it. Then 1/2 inch rain. Sh Pk is almost done swathing canola, Killam start today. Wheat that needs it has been Desiccated. Fabas look good. Flax can be desiccated early next week. Yields look nice. Have a great weekend... and be safe!

Tstep, glyp will stop second growth and weeds. We use the plastic lifters on cutter bar which make picking this crop up easier. If you can be assured rain will stay away and can pick the crop up quick, after it is ripe... then swathing works great as well.
All the best!

Harvest in full swing. Yellow peas finished with overall excellent yield. Started some maples but the ground is so saturated decided to leave them a few days so ground can dry out. On to red lentils where yield is very nice and quality an X3, so not to bad considering the weekend monsoon. Finished swathing canola this morning and overall very good. Solid and thick corner to corner. Hopefully the yield is there. All early seeded durum is ready to straight cut and looks excellent. Won't be able to start on it for another week tho until the lentils and maple peas are cleaned up. Late durum is fantastic but needs 2 weeks to mature yet and has some fuzz In it. Weather forecast sux and last night just dodged a hailstorm which did a lot of damage to standing straight cut canola and dry canola Swaths. Barley completely stripped. This is the Latest I have ever seen hail in this area. One year remember it on August 27th.

Two step tom did not properly answer your question. Glyphosate in crop will kill all winter anuals and weeds excet the resistant ones which will die over winter. Wait till after crop comes off and you will kill nothing. 20 yrs experience. Spray now. Just had this conversation with my dad. Ok less than 20 percent of the glyoho will get to target. But its better than after harvest when plants are dusted. Or have taken minus 10 frosts. Desicate with rr
