Melody you missed a great game, hey the crops are way behind if the fields are still wet, do you plant many acres ?
We didn't get anything planted. Got the corn planter all set up and filled and it started raining. Dad had gone out discing and I ran the tine weeder for awhile, but heavy rain chased us out of the fields. Then, in the pouring rain, we had to rig up the discs so we could get them back to the yard and fix them.
Some stuff can get planted if the fields are somewhat wet, but not when there are puddles still. There are too many things that can go wrong with planting wet... tractor getting stuck, soil compaction, mud clogging the planter, seeds rotting before sprouting, seeds and fertilizer getting wet in the planter. Hopefully we get nice weather soon and then have a long, warm fall.



You?

:p
