Feeding hay on barren ground isn't worthy of posting.....

I'll try to get a pic of a plumbers' crack for you to see. gs

As long as it is from that helper gal you posted about before.

That's what I was thinking.

What kind of planting date do you guys shoot for on your cotton? We've been done for quite a while.

We like to plant 4-20 to 5-10. This cotton was planted behind flood water, started May 30th, finished May 38th. Then on top of being late we turned real cool in Sept. an it just shut down. Usually done by 10-10, 10-15 or at the worst 10-20. Last year done by 9-28. Bout 3 or 4 good days an I'll be done but have rain for Wed.

I would suspect June is a real short month there.

Don't want any cotton planted in June, have to get done in May.

I'm guessing by getting it all in by May, it completes growth and you harvest before first frost? What is your average first frost date in that part of the state? Ours is Nov 7, but we were 3 weeks early this year, and have already had 3

I'll see if I can figure out how to post some pictures. Amazing the difference in our areas of the state; not just geography, but land use too

We just want it in to get enough heat units to mature, unlike this year where the cool sept shut it down. Our frost date is the same as yours.

how do you posts pictures?

Photobucket is what I use. I have a iPhone and just snap the picture and load it to photobucket then to here. However I can't figure out how to do it from my laptop, I can do stuff from my phone much easier than from a real computer.

Take two.....



These are all the down limbs & stuff from last weeks storm. We hadn't been able to amke much of a dent in the cleanup, now it's buried again. Not as much snow this time though. I sure hope this isn't indicative of the kind of winter we're going to have.
