    Everything is up , the odd hard clay hill or sand dunes. Is kinda thin.
    Just need a rain . The area got 1/2 a tenth to not measurable.
    Grand total since the winter snow melted , around 7/10s.
    Good thing it is not too warm this coming week.
    Last chance a week from now.
    I think it will be over if we get
    Skunked again.

      If the moisture is 2" down, I am not sure how well the canola will catch either. Could you hire a single shoot narrow opener drill (3/4" knife or disc) and seed into the existing crop, hoping to not kill the stand you have, but increase the plant count. With warmer soil and no fertilizer with the seed, it should emerge quickly.

      Unfortunately it is a bit of a no winner decision that you have to make.
      I have 1 inch knives I could put on hope to preserve what canola is there. I could clean wheat and canola out with my quick clean I think.

      I have tucked durum in the top layer of that lower moisture zone before and done very well. The odds would favor that vs hoping this canola turns into something. it wont with out a rain but durum could germinate and hold on another month in that zone.

          Checked 1988 notes, 1.8" by June 11, double what we have so far in 2019, then heat and wind from HELL virtually KILLED crops. Wheat heading June 21, Combined Aug 8, 16 bu/acre farm average. Canola same 16 bu/acre farm average, Polish varieties on SMF. Oh ya 3.9" rain after harvest started! Total crap write off year, guess some of us will get another to live/farm through.
