Seeding / crop progress

[macdon02]

Seeding will restart after the cold snap at the end of May according to what I read this morning....it wasn't that long ago that I was spraying on June 5 with the worry the spray didn't work because of a window scraping the morning after...

Yes the 25th should be the -8 or -10 that kicks us into summer. Flip of the switch and the blowtorch hits

Not prairie wide but there is a big area with very little sub soil moisture.
We can't grow a crop on the prairies with a few rains and no reserve.

This crop will stumble very quickly in some areas. One weather model took out decent rain prospects for first few days of June. Nothing for the next 16 days and warmer temps. It's toast

Been there several times, not fun at all.
And when the moisture situation is at that point , no grass , 1/10 or 2/10 does absolutely no fukin good whatsoever.
As some are finding out ... when one starts that dry , showers are useless. Again it is a fact and is what it is . Some of us have been there several times .
Mud sucks but so does drought .
There is a tremendous amount of money 💰 in the ground right now . Not like a pasture of hay crop with zero dollars into it yet . There is a massive difference. Just sayin

Its next year country already?

Hopefully not, I at least want my money back....because I'm stoopid enough to do it again next year!

Looking more and more like pasture and feed shortage for cattlemen, still a month seeding window for green feed.
Times have changed from when we had to cultivate to keep weeds from taking moisture.
Still potential for June rains to support newly seeded and established crops.

Spinning in the mud at the 30% mark and i rented half out, wheat stubble is mush, neighbors spraycoupe sinking empty.
