My lovely lentils today, started putting them out of their misery. Few patches of moisture where snow sat look not bad, some light brown dry patches that have matured and the dark green spots are 6” high max, little to no seed and decided they could try growing again. #lentils
Does anyone else with have peas like this? They had been under severe drought conditions. The top multiple nodes are squished into an inch and now with a bit of moisture they are beginning to regrow, the bottom pods are starting to shell out. #peas #drought25
Checked my #durum today it’s doing really poorly by home, moderately better on my land over East. #drought #pallisertriangle #kittylitter
I checked some crops today. I’ve actively been avoiding them for some time, tough to see again, especially with insurance below the cost of production. Maple Peas were first seeded probably averaging 5 kernels per plant in large areas of the field. Sad. #drought #peas
Welcome to drought 25. We shut the drill down, that wind really came up, the dry soil is just pulverizing. I’m sure that canola will germinate just fine. #drought25 #canola
The crops didn’t like the heat. Flag leaves are going now, still some kernels have developed, the countdown to harvest has begun.
The mustard looks good, finally got the yard pic I have been waiting for.
This next ten days is not going to end well, but It’s still trying 🤞.
