Planting A Bin Buster?

[Absent Minded Farmer]

We're about bone dry here in SEWI. Don't recall the last time I saw this much dust coming off the wheels while planting. So.... if it's that dry already.... the grain bin might need an extension? The next question is, will it be filled with corn or dust??

Im in that pocket of southern MN that got 5-12 inches of rain over a week ago. Lots of ground still not dried out. See ponds in the fields yet where the rain was heavier.

Dusty where you can drive, thankfully we havent gotten more rain since. Those on sandy ground are probably wishing for some again. In my heavy clay, dont need rain until June.

Opposite end of the spectrum!

I'm there with you Paul. Sure is good haying weather though.

The plant in the dust, the bins will bust saying only applies to winter wheat! At least here. I don't think it applies to soybeans, corn or other crops.

Good to know. I'm doing a test plot of WW this fall.

At least MN seems to be getting watered this year. It all balances out somewhere.

DO not see why anybody would want their bin to bust.
