Getting on the dry side

[furrowtickler]

But may be a good thing as crops are rooting down into good subs soil and crop disease is a non issue at this piont

You can have our shit! Please take it please! Seed 5000 canola at this rate harvest 4000. 1000 acres water sitting or running or mud. 3 to 7 canola plants per sq meter sick yellow plants! No cabbage on lots just sick thin bolting. Dry or drought would be a dream!
Enjoy

T storms Gona happen here today , but will be hit and miss again

Have not seen anything yet this year on winds that carry aster yellows up from south.
Recall that last outbreak seemed to catch our disease specialists and canola industry by surprise in amount of yield loss.

I will settle for a drier bias, for the only reason you said furrow, to keep disease in check and maybe stop adding inoculum to the soil. But what do I know, I never went to school!!! Good crops can be grown on modest amounts of rain. Let the top dry down a bit.

Yup , wind and dryish - cheap fungicide lol

4/10 again over night, a couple tenths every other day for last 2-3 weeks. Durum turning yellow, had hopes of a dryer year this summer, right now looking like 2010

Some pea crops in the area aren't looking so good. Ours are still pretty sharp, after the Odyssey assault effects wore off.... geez I hope they don't get sick. Anything I would have applied to the seed wouldn't make a difference in later stage infection anyway. I have to rely on "conditions" to help me out....nothing "out of the jug" will.prevent root rot now. Unless some of you guys have a secret witch's brew cooking in the cauldron?

Just finished spraying 7 of our hardest hit quarters of canolai, inch plus again on weekend over here it's definitely 2010 again! Next will be disease spray on peas and canola and wheat! Yea a drought is so tough to take!
The aster yellow has been n my mind with all the SE wind and S wind that shit all the snake oil in the world couldn't save!

Try a shot of 1/2 ltr / AC of ligno humate
May help boast sickly peas

[furrowtickler]

$3.50 /AC , relatively cheap way to stimulate root growth

Grabbed 6/10 - nice and lucky timing

Hard to get my empty head around how many "passes" is sometimes "required". Supposed to do what ever it takes to grow it so the Pirates can try to steal it? Nobody wants to be into a crop a pile of cash and see it wither away but at what point do you put up the white flag? You will never over power Mother Nature! But is giving up the answer?
