Regina blocked it yesterday we got 1/10 at the yard and 2/10 in town and 1/2 in Regina. I delayed spraying because they said rain. Well I'm pissed would have finished in 6 hours but no I listened to the ****ing weather man and did other things.

Another half inch yesterday/last night here. Nothing major the rest of the week but still chance of showers every day.

I’d be ok with a week off to dry the top out a bit right now. Can definitely tell it’s starting to catch up in the subsoil, water is sticking around up top longer.

Heat and a breeze in between inches would be helpful as well.

This tells a story …


Also just like winter , they keep pushing off the needed warmer temps everyday
Just like the This Hour has 22 min “winter forecast” episode with RIck Mercer lol

The clouds finally stalled over the Regina area yesterday and we got a much needed 6/10s. Canola should pop a little now.

Should have time for a little summer vacay, no combine will be moving here for 2 months.

We’ve had 7” since May so far, we were saturated this spring with the huge amount of snow this winter and struggled this spring with seeding. We are still plenty wet and don’t need any rain for the next week or so but have rain in the forecast for the next 7 days, will start fungicides next week.

6" since June 10] Very hard on the peas... but the CPS and Canola loves this weather. The B1030RR is the best Nexera In a long time... waist high bolting now[10% blooming], easy 2 weeks ahead of last year... Wheat heading, peas blooming and fungicide when rain lets up this week...hedged with puts and cash sales... bought back a whack of out of the money calls [now] to give upside protection, harvested the $950Nov22 Canola puts on a spread [bought back $900's] to pay for Call options. 50% priced [sold cash at elevator] [rest covered with puts] Canola... wheat all covered on puts. Just rolled the $10 mini Wheat down to $9.50... cash all returned plus own all the options.

Volatility isn't over... thinking of buying Oct22 Oil calls... when it settles down... to hedge fuel.

Rains here a bit every couple days. Could do with some heat but canola loving it. Lots of mushrooms so those who planted sc canola might look smart. Any barley crops I see around look sick. Too much water and disease. Was to a sale west of Saskatoon and canola crops sure patchy down biggar way and around. Never was in a lentil field before and kid drank too much coffee so on one his frequent pee breaks I checked one out. No lentils where I live.

Wishing the rain would cease. Dumping down right now. From drought straight to a flood. Rather lose the crop due to a drought than a flood because there is far less mess. I have had both. Crop had mostly recovered from the last round of flooding not too bad so I was contemplating fungicides for the better areas of the wheat yesterday but that is cancelled now as the sprayer will get stuck going from high spot to high spot now. The main problem is run off. Searching old weather records to see if there ever was years in the past where they had ridiculous rainfall amounts as wondering about long term viability. Lots of weather stations have data for a few years and then they were closed or moved. Only one previous year was as wet as we have been since 2016. (The exception to the wet years was last year of course) and that was 1956. Looked as far back as the 20's where data was available.

Forecast here will move the crop along quickly if it is accurate.

Not what you want at flowering.

[Rinker]

We've had 1 inch spread over 4 showers since may 19th. Crops are hanging on but the rains just aren't coming.

[seldomseen]

Looks like nothing but warm and dry in the forecast which is needed to move the crop along but crops mudded in to clay land will struggle to find the water it needs with all the compaction.
On dry years the low spots really help bring up the average yield of our fields but this year the low spots are droned out and bare.
