[QUOTE="Oldtimer, post: 691585, member: 97"] This has been about the wierdist summer I can remember....Been cool most the summer- very little rain in June which is our usual high rain month of the year- then rain in July and now it seems like monsoons in August....We've picked up over 3 inches in the last week with almost daily thunderstorms going thru- and so far this month have over 4 inchs ... (Our yearly average is 11.5 for the year) I was just looking at the hayfields - and with all the moisture- and cool growing weather- we may even get some grass second cutting off the grass/alfalfa mix fields.... Thunderstorm went thru again this morning - not much moisture- only .05- but enough to stop harvesting...Lots of lightning and thunder. One of the drawbacks of all this late rain is that altho I've sprayed around the outbuildings and corrals 2 and some places 3 times-- it seems like all the spray and sterilant has acted like fertilizer--and I have Kochia plants 2-3 feet high again... Today is warming up--88 today on the way to a predicted 95-- and the next couple weeks are suppose to be hot and dry- which we need for harvesting... If there will be any value left in the continual dropping wheat prices :shock: :???: My son has been doing quite a bit of travelling in ND and says he's never seen such beautiful wheat fields in that country- altho they will be a couple weeks before they're ready since they got a late start with all the snow...That doesn't sound very optomistic for higher wheat prices tho...
