Ain't that the truth. We don't have snow but it's still wet. Dad's gonna see if he can get the sprayer stuck.

Did anyone spray before seeding this year? There were hardly any weeds where we seeded our peas and lentils (RR canola stubble). Still waiting to seed canola because it is too expensive to seed twice.

There are a few guys preburning up here. I am on Mustard so I put down a pre emergent last fall so no weeds. I will have to preburn my wheat ground as the weeds are starting to show now. Good plan on the Canola. It is pretty early yet and Frosty can still rear his ugly head. Lol.

How long does it take for canola to germinate and emerge with ground temps what they are this spring?

Gotta love winterizing the sprayer in may. Wonder how that canola that was seeded 3 weeks ago is doing.
