    And I wasn't even invited!!! Hahahaha
    SF3 and I may cross paths in the waiting room at RBC Dominion Securities in Regina but when we're greeted by our advisors he is escorted to the top floor glass-walled penthouse over looking the city and I'm escorted down to the windowless basement boiler room.... address location is THEE only thing we have in common. So don't feel bad if you're not invited to go on the crop tours. Sometimes not knowing how good other people's crops are will save your sanity and self-esteem. We(most) each do the best we can with what we have. Location, location, location...

    Take care and make sure you have a safe harvest.

              Anybody know the BRIX levels in their respective crops? Target a BRIX of 10 or more in wheat and barley. Higher the BRIX more it can withstand frost. Brassicas similar.

                  Yes its very cute to know the brix of your crop at all times. Yes I have a refractometer and garlic press. Mother Nature affects brix more than any other factor. Spray some kelp, humates, compost teas or whatever the hell you do no need to harp on us. In my experience its the guys that assume everyone else is doing it wrong who are the most out to lunch.

                    Hang on for the ride now, feds just gave $9.2 billion to the canola industry for research, and, $2.8 billion
                    for hemp research. Competing with soys I guess.

                          Some zeros out of place there. The entire Canola industry is only worth 26.7 billion per year. That we are investing one third of that
