Rain has been plentiful, so no excuse there-but I have had a hard time getting in front of computer. Looks like we are going to get a good spraying window this weekend and early next week so I figure I should blog something before that starts.
The waterway and roadside grass has really taken off the last two weeks-the neverending mowing saga will start this weekend.
All the corn has has first pass of spray, 2nd shot we will probably wait another week or two-to get closer to canopy.
My no-till bean fields are flat out embarrasing-Wife is beginning to wonder if I am raising wild yellow mustard this year instead of beans. The dry days have been so cold and cloudy I didn't want to spray, and every other day it has been wet.
One lesson I learned this year is fall spraying 100% works-you can see to the foot where I did a little roundup last fall just before first frost-with Roundup being so cheap will be hitting every acre this fall if possible.

Don't forget those cover crops! No weeds in radishes. I need to call FSA for early mowing, grass all headed out and some noxious weeds, Poison Hemlock and Canada Thistle but I am sure they want me to protect some nesting bird...
