Been real dry here lately, grass was mostly brown and corn was curling badly. Just down the road in the sand the corn was burning up with brown leaves on the bottom. But we got a real nice inch of rain over night, so that should help.
As of yesterday morning they only gave 20% chance of rain, on Friday they gave 80% chance and we got nothing. At that point I was really worried as the next ten days said no rain. So sure am glad to get this. Cultivated the corn this weekend. Had some weeds coming and didn't want to spray again since it's non-gmo and didn't want to add more atrazine. But the cultivator did a good job on it. Before and after pics
Here is also a short video. Now I'll have to get some nitrogen on the corn then next will be combining the oats which is headed out nicely.
