More crop pics

[fjlip]

Our crops, but the whole area is typically like these fields. Some more bloom, some less bolting. Hanging on with subsoil, rooting perhaps...potential

Was through your area Monday. From home, to Tisdale and back. The Northeast has a bumper.

One more rain...

[Klause]

They look awesome!!! I'd say your area and ours are pretty close....


Hopefully we can all catch an inch of rain.

Our canopy never really closed. You can still kinda see rows in bolted and flowering canola. I don't know what the hell it's living on but won't be "good". One more decent rain wouldn't even elevate it to good status let alone bumper. As I've said before, I know it will be disappointing, but how disappointing?

Give it a few more days without rain. You will see how bad it will get.

Same as in East Central.....we are barely hanging on because of subsoil moisture but if we don't see something in the next week we are screwed.

Big crop on its way again. It is your area's turn. Showers have started here again in S AB so the drought will be over here as well. Some crops around here are finished already and others will benefit from the showers.

Interestingly no pictures of bad crops.

Embarrassed tweety.

If someone posts how to put pictures on. I will put some pictures of this area crops from some high input crops here.

....or have some asshole ask what I'm complaining about. In my mind my posts are reflective of what has happened here, I can't predict the future.

The crop basically all came up. Biggest rain so far is about a third of an inch(May 6), three other quarter inch shots since and various tenth at a time shots. Total for June .58 of an inch not all at once. My land is variable, light spots and hills will be BAD. From the road at 100km/hr they don't look too bad but don't stop and take a closer look. Do we look for larger headers to harvest this shit (spend more on a shitty crop?).
As I've stated before the least I am hoping for at this time is getting my expenses back, I don't think there will be a profitable acre on this farm. That doesn't mean zero crop it means I didn't make any money and hope to get most of the expenses back to do it again next year. HOPE!!! This isn't over, how will what's there fill without rain? Subsoil is only capable of so much. Amazed it hung on as long as it has.

Bucket one needs an html code, I uploaded to photobucket, click the html box associated with each pic to copy it, paste that code in reply window. Practice forum available. Anyone use a phone to post pics?

[farmaholic]

After you upload and pick the picture you want to post use the list of options on the right side of the screen. Use the HTML link but not the HTML thumb option. Get your kids to help. LOL

It's amazing how everyone says its a "shit show". Crops are pathetic, some wont be combined yet there's bumper crops are on the way. Really not sure why guys are posting these pics there's a lot that are suffering big time. We all know what a good crops look like.
