It turned into a nice evening to scout some April soybeans.

These are some big radish holes. Covercrop was terminated about 8 weeks after September strip till.

This is a nice surprise. This grower gave up IPs 3 years ago. First year not having perennials (or annuals) to clean up at 6-8 leaf stage.

Nice looking corn beside the Watford dump. This is why I encourage dairy farmers to rotate in and out of alfalfa frequently. Better corn with much less N applied!

Authority Supreme and Metribuzin are working very well for me in conventional soybeans again this year! We had lots of activating rainfall for the Sulfentrazone and Pyroxasulfone.

This grower finished planting in May. It was all hands on deck at the finish. This field was done with a 30” DB60 that doubled back to narrow the row spacing. These two rows are hugging last year’s corn rows. This did a fine job in notill corn stalks.

Questionable emergence on June 7th looks great today. Population is good and there are no weeds yet with a burndown of Bifecta EZ, Enlist 1 and Roundup.

Not much will get past a two pass system. This lighter land had Integrity and glyphosate in April (pre till) followed by 85 mL Callisto with Aatrex, NIS and Glyphosate at 4-5 leaf stage.

This client lost their father and husband a few years ago. He would be very proud of what they are doing.

First flower and first aphid of 2025. The pressure is on for the IP resprays now… GO GO GO

That’s better! 20” replanted becomes 10”

Aphids are hard to find until I check a plant with a ladybug. Keep going beneficials!

This corn near Alvinston was no-tilled into soybean stubble on June 2nd. Impressive growth for less than 4 weeks in the ground! Getting side dressed today. V7 corn on 20” spacing.

I thought Jack Jack Koetsier messed up planting the corn for Bluewater Growing Project . Keep an eye out for this in a few weeks Paul Hodgins . Thanks Jack and FieldView Canada

Day 2 of soil sampling after wheat harvest. It was a very good year for red clover!!

Corn fungicide season begins next week. Some hybrids are silking before tassel emergence.

Thank you for spraying some 20” corn this evening ⁦Paul Hodgins⁩

East Lambton had a few more rains this summer. I really wasn’t expecting things to look this good.

Soil sampling after silage harvest this morning. Some high chopped stalks here!

These wheat seedlings are more resilient than we often think. In the ground for 4 weeks with near zero moisture until Sunday’s rain. #notdeadyet
