Yesterday we tested a flax sample...about 14.4. I didn't think that was bad for having wet snow hanging on it twice in the last week. The swathed flax field beside was "soaking" wet...yikes...with a wee bit of snow still on it on the north side of the swaths. There is still remnants of snow laying around here...probably will go away after today.
The "on again off again" forecast from Revenue Canada(lol) has taken the precipitation away here for early this week. Probably be back in the forecast later today or tomorrow. This might be the week we fold up the 2018 harvest circus tent for good...I "hope"!
Edit in: Yesterday the humidity didn't come down below 60%. Slow drying. The last time, last Saturday and Sunday, we were able to harvest dry flax the humidity was in the 40's and maybe dipped below 40 for an hour or two a day.
