Peas - 6 to 8 year rotation ??

I did grow peas on Flax stubble this year. Yea there was volunteer after Odyssey, kinda stunted and spindly but there was still enough there in rows. Our Flax straw got baled and hauled to Manitoba last year, the heavy harrows didn't see that field so not alot of flax would have germinated last fall or early this spring before a preburn. We dessicated the peas with Glyphosate and it actually didn't cut that bad. Would I do it again? Not if I don't have to.

Klause you didnnot grow flax this year. Did you rent more land? As far as peas and moisture I would not make a decision to grow on dried up land. Sask3 has possibly excess moisture. Not many in most other places do. Then again we were drier last year this time. I dont know. I guess 30 years of dry is hard to get over. Burry me in mud.
