Our earliest planted corn looks great at over my head in plenty of spots. Our late planted corn was planted 5 weeks ago, and that looks a little dry but still looks pretty good. It didn't germinate for a week when the soil was so dry, but then we got a good soaker and it took off. We haven't had much rain since then, but it's still doing ok. It's almost knee high.
Lots of poor corn though. ONe of the custom guys didn't plant the corn very deep, so lots of what he did looks bad and is really spotty, some shoulder high, some barely knee high because of different germination dates in the same row. Might not be good for combining if some isn't mature before the frost comes. Funny how our corn planted with an old 495A planter looks so good but corn planted with a nice shiney new planter looks terrible. We put in silage specific hybrids, and we plant around 28-30,000 with starter fertilizer only. We got our late planted corn sprayed last weekend, but we never caught the early corn before it got too tall.
Our hay could be better. 2nd crop got the same rain that our late corn did and it really helped out a week before we cut it. We did get a little rain shortly after cutting it, so we're hoping 3rd crop does atleast as good as the 2nd crop did. Oats & peas, and peas and tritical were dissapointing.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
