    Seeding progress?

    Were at just over 40% and counting. Had a slow day yesterday with the fog and mist and damn cold north wind. Felt like Nov 1 not may 13.
    Durum, Peas,and 1/4 HRS are in the ground now seeding Canola and Barley.

    10 percent would be generous, nothing moving around the peg and not likely till Monday.

      40% done peas and most of the canola are in. Nothing up yet, probably a good thing after -7c yesterday.

        40% done all lentils. slow emergence I'm glad I put the phos down it seems to help with colder soils.
        spotty rains yesterday 1 1/2 inches rain yesterday south west of Davidson a few puddles in town and light snow this A.M.
        This too will pass!!

          We are about half done, but snowing heavy now ground is turning white. Calling for -7 tonight. Canola is up north west of here Vawn, Meota area. Our peas are sprouted but not up - Kind of hopeing it snows enough to insulate then tonight. Alot of early seeded crops may be in deep trouble in this area. Mid next week looks just as cold and yes that will be the 20th.

                35 percent done. Nothing up yet as just started on Sat. Tried planting this morning but after 100 acres started to snow but nothing much and freezing problems on the Seedmaster knives so shutting down for the day.

                  In my neighbourhood (in Southern Alberta) pretty well everything seeded except edible beans and a few hybrid seed canola fields. Canola and sugar beets have all been irrigated, or are bieng irrigated, for germination. Some sprinklers going on forage crops. It's been cooler than normal here but only a few scattered showers and flurries since the snow melted in March.

                    I thought it was said that Seedmaster would give you a two day headstart to sowing. What happened? Did they forget to install individual knife heaters!!! (lol)

                      45% in SE SK. Not sure if -7 last night has hurt the canola.

                          Varies zero to 50% in the Rose Valley area, maybe 25% average due to wet fields. Soil temps maxed on two days at 12C. Otherwise as low as zero on the 8th and back there today. Way too cold, so nothing emerged. Half inch with hail stopped everyone on the 12th. Now also too wet, with more snow today. Snow forecast for Tuesday also.

                            80% done corn but we've only been able to plant yesterday and last Wednesday due to heavy rain, probably be able to switch to soybeans on Monday or Tuesday judging by the forecast and catch up on the corn later.

                              Checking nice to see you checking. I was thinking my seedmaster planted crop will come up a couple days sooner, but when you plant at christmass time anything can happen hehe
