[furrowtickler]

I hope all the seed has good vigour ....

[blackpowder]

Wow Every morning for days now.

[SASKFARMER3]

Ah weather in canada! Normal spring! Best seeding in 8 years hope it stays!

[Klause]

Forgot to put the garden hose away yesterday froze rock hard this morning. Ouch.

[tstep]

Can't get excited to put canola in the ground when the garden is still freezing.

[fjlip]

Hope canola that's up doesn't look like the volunteer, mostly dead yesterday, should be finished today. What are soil temps at 2"?

[fjlip]

Heard SNOW in Calgary, chance of rain 4 days Regina, is it raining now? Some on Radar.

[Klause]

Wadena got snow yesterday.


Soil in garden -0.2 at 5cm this am


Looked at a field of canola by lanigan yesterday I
Sprouts froze under the ground... no coming back from that

[furrowtickler]

I think the same thing going on with early seeded canola nw of here.

[wilagro]

Its easy to figure out...don't seed until the soil is WARM enough. What is the sense of seeding into frost?

There are always neighbours who have to re-seed because they figure that they are smarter than Mother Nature.

[Hopperbin]

Wizard at one time we thought no runoff. And early spring. is the way it is. Volunteers are a bit ****ed for sure. Klaus that cannot be a planted crop is it?

[Hopperbin]

I type wilagro and it comes out wizard

[sumdumguy]

I wondered where McAins got frozen peas?

[rockpile]

I donno know. We're supposed to get frosty again Wed. Calgary woke up to snow this morning! I watch the native vegetation and the aspen and poplar have yet to leaf out. All other trees are leafed and or blooming. Wildflowers that normally bloom in April still haven't. Oh, and my dogwoods that usually leaf out fairly early are still dormant. Lots of crop two weeks in the ground and no sign of life. Reminds me of 2002 when about this time I swapped out my grease gun for the Unitol Arctic Grade. And did I mention how dry it is? If it doesn't rain over the long weekend I'm officially declaring a drought! Seed on SF3, you might be the lucky one this year.

Hopper it is... I'll text you whose.
