Originally posted by biglentil View PostGee I hope my mustard does better than that. My pods are short and stumpy compared to what I remember in the past. Like 6 seeds a pod. Does not bode well for canola yields either.
Early pulses are just into the twenties, lots of lentils running mid to lower teens. Later seeded pulses are 10 days away and look rough.
Early cereals are a week away or so. Barley is fairly thick, but seeds are VERY thin. Heard through the grain elevator that early durum in bow island area is coming in quite light. One sample was 58lb and 21%Px. Some of my wheat heads didn't even make it out of the sheath. If there's kernels in them they'll be hard to keep in the combine I can imagine.
Amazing to see the difference between chemfallow and stubble on cereals this year. Even with full subsoil moisture in both at seeding, chemfallow looks to seriously outperform this year. Only guys with significant established and paid for landbases have the luxury of chemfallow around here though. Pretty hard to justify it on rented land which demands payment on a "per seedable" basis or even worse on a 160ac/quarter regardless of whether it's all broken or seadable or not basis.
It was next year country here by the 10th of July already. Next year will be a challenge if conditions do not turn around. Grasshoppers moved in late and are busy laying eggs, stubble subsoil moisture is non existent... running out of notches to cinch up my belt with!

What a pile of fluff! Pretty ripe and the heads pointing straight up.....not a single sign of a fusarium infected head, even in the few "good" low spots with decent moisture. A report of some winter wheat in the area running 20! I find that hard to beleive, I'm hoping our HRS does about one and a half times that! HOPING!
Looking for a job this winter...SF3's golf caddy, baggage handler and condo(house) keeper, cocktail mixer....

From the air from Regina to Calgary can see the canola rows through to ground. BL, you could lose those rows into the ground cracks!
Warning out that durum at 4% thins is not a #1 CWAD. Elevator staff has been advised by management.
Happy harvest, everyone.

Biglentil and fj. We got a wee bit of rain. Watched it coming all day...uneventful, and that's ok now. Don't need any wstrong winds either until those "fluffy" wheat swaths settle!
Harvest safe folks.
