We haven't had any excess rain here in NW Iowa, but the little rains we do get just won't stop. The crop was planted right and is looking good, but so are the weeds. Our windows of opportunity for spraying are pretty narrow.
Saturday I sprayed the wet 60 and drove through water to get it done. I was going against every instinct I had when I headed for the water puddle and kept on going through it. Had a shower so Sunday was out. Sprayed all day yesterday in perfect conditions and wrapped it up this morn with plans to spray fencerows. Got half way around one field spraying fencerows and here came the black clouds so I headed for the shed two miles away and got there just before the .45" of rain came pounding down. About three acres out of my 16 acres of very brown hay was baled before the rain came rolling in.
I feel kind of guilty whining about the weather when you guys who live east of us have been drowning all spring. Good luck for the rest of the year.Jim
