... your pocket knife is dull from constantly using it as a shovel to check seed depth. We are so terribly dry here in NE KS that I am planting beans at depths I never have before. Some fields there is some moisture so I am planting deep to get them to germinate. Some fields (most at this point) are so dry I am dusting them in hoping that they don’t try to germinate until a rain.
I had a first for me. My 1760 no till planter wouldn’t stay in the ground because one field was so hard. I usually work that field but decided not to because there was a little moisture. As I planted further south on it the top got harder and harder. At that point I tied the planter up out of flex to force the center rows back down more and put 80 pounds of air in the air bags. With the Yetter spike tooth closing wheel it didn’t make too bad of a furrow condition, but I have always bragged that the planter could get something to grow on a blacktop. I hope it proves me right this year. I’ve still got about 500 acres left to plant and am pretty discouraged with the conditions. That’s farming, I guess!
