      Older farmers here were talking about years they didn't turn a wheel till after the long weekend. Unusual but not unheard of. Best of luck to those struggling to get going

        Seems we are either ducking the clouds or ducking the frost or some other monster.

          First seeded field..canola on wheat stubble..was wet and lumpy..now dried right out..zero germ..
          Ugly thought...need a shower.biting tongue...

          Seeding in MUD is a DUD...

              That would me ME...older no wiser farmer...worst case...
              1974, late in May, needed to HARROW first, just to dry top a bit to pull cultivator, MUD and Water lots of guys stuck! Press drill days!
              As luck would have it, a brand new Case 2470 saved our ASS, 2wd pulled SFA that spring.
              So how did crop turn out mudded in late?
              Froze in the fall, pepper canola, feed 50 lb wheat, yields SFA. Lets hope 2017 is NOT a repeat.
