CCSP -No till Farm
Hi,
Planting still continues on the farm. I was able to get through some of the wet wheat plots with the concorde shank drill, so in order to keep the rotation, I planted wheat the first of June. Most all of the plots have dried up pretty well. We finished corn on May 30. I asked the guys in Cenex if it was still too late to plant corn! They said, yes Kelly. I guess it all depends on what July is like. The corn has seemed to emerged well. The earliest corn is 4 leaf. We have some thing pulling out the young plants. Probably blackbirds, gophers, pheasants and or other wildlife. The wheat is coming along well, along with the flax. I just stream nozzled the flax last night with 35 # N with 3 parts water. We did not see any burn today.
Hope your spring has went well.
Have a good week.
