Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

[Daylate]

got nothing. crops looked beautiful mid week. started going backwards. needed this rain but got nothing. very depressing with the potential that was there. but i guess thats farming

[burnt]

Finally got a good rain here this morning - 1 1/4" since breakfast. We had 3 little showers totaling 7/10" since early May before this. A lot of hot winds that soaked it up as fast as it came.

The soys were pretty well stopped after emergence. Lots came up with no rain since and ran out of moisture.

Grass you prove every day why you have no idea how crops grow in Canada....

No, that's you with your continual stream of bullshit. You claim you only need 4 rain events in the growing season then you're whining when you don't get more. You claimed 10 days ago the rain you got was a 10 and some of your quarters were flooded. Now you're claiming it was 14 days since you had any and you really needed this rain. Don't think you have a clue...

Wheat seeded May 8th has heads peaking out.
Canola seeded May 14th starting to bloom..
Lots of potential. Timely rain will make it all good..

.77 of an inch so far, I think we could have got by without for a little while yet, but like hobbyfrmr says, when it rains I let it rain.... Things looking not too bad here. Some canola got off to a bad start and won't make max potential. Peas somewhat healed themselves but not completely, worst patches will never be "good". Wheat...the fools crop, looks pretty good.

As dumb as this sounds, I would have preferred a short dry spell. It looks likè fungicides will need to be sprayed and I hate their efficacy, spend alot of money and time spraying for "shitty mixed results". Mother Nurture will rule the day, I know my place. But is it right to fully concede and make no effort?

On the way to Regina for groceries we stopped three times on highway approaches because it was raining so hard, glad we never got that!

Hope everyone gets some of what they're looking for.....take care!

CutKnife crops looked fabulous right from the start. Some nice country through there. Lots of washouts after the big rain. Some canola got beat up and covered with dirt.

Here’s a pic of the same spot today. Surprising what came from that in 2 weeks.

Similar for us, seeing flowering starting today in DeKalb 75-45, seeded May 15th. Few small 1/4” - 1/2” showers likely needed in the next month.

Enjoyable year not battling mud in NE Sask.

Grass your kids maybe will be smart enough to get what I mean by 4 rain events.

In eastern Sask it's easy.

1. after seeding.
2. Farm progress show.
3. Craven weekend.
4. Exhibition weekend.

Guess what you grow a normal crop with normal snow cover and normal fall precipitation.

Really you hate me I couldn't give a rats ass.

Have a great day. I did.
