Spring Planting Update


Memorial Day Weekend - May 28th and 29th - we finally got the corn & Soybeans planted. Some of the sections were really too wet to plant - but we did anyhow. The forecast called for dry, warm weather the next week - so as long as we didn't bury the disks or planter - we figured getting in the corn especially was more important than having perfect planting conditions. We put down 200 lbs/acre of 15-15-15 with all the corn - and most of the soybeans. There is still one more field (1.5 acres) of soybeans - maybe June 11th we'll get it in.
