Realistically … when does the gun go off?

[WiltonRanch]

Winter annuals starting to green up. Clover is coming good. Can drive anywhere in the fields. Brand and vaccinate 90% this weekend and start harrowing following week. May 10 start seeding like most years.

Still snow in our fields and more on the fence lines, hoping for a May 12th start but that might be optimistic at this point given our 7 day forecast.

Yup,,, we're looking at the same thing.

May 12th,,,, if it doesn't rain too much before that date.

If it starts raining,,, it'll be 2011 all over again!

The usual suspects started seeding today near D'Arcy Saskatchewan. I am surprised he waited this long

Started making dust here today with our old iron which feels nice.

Started floating fertilizer on the corn ground and working it in. Only frost or excess moisture is under where we bedded the cows in the field.

Having to use the old school versatile and disk since the two bigger horses are awaiting on parts. Had a head for an Iveco sitting at the machine shop since February to get fixed up after it dropped a valve into the piston. They said it was good and promised it done a month ago. Now yesterday they said it’s pooched. Just a weeeee bit grumpy about that since a reman from CNH is 7-10 business days away. Realistically that unit is probably out for seeding since we won’t have time to put it together with calving happening. Also awaiting a turbo for our challenger since there’s none in Canada and the parts guys are hoping it’s in tomorrow.

We sure have had enough parts availability issues this past year………… hopefully it improves soon so we can get some kernels in the ground out here.

Here’s to hoping everyone gets what they need for weather in the next while. 🍀

Last yr we got our big snowstorm March 20. Waited an entire month for that to dry up. On may 12th we got 2 inches of rain. Didnt start seeding until May 19th, yet we got corner to corner seeded. Things can change fast in this country.
