Update on the wheat harvest..
First field done. 58 test weight and a little over 90 bushel per acre.
That was probably the best field, although #2 may be close to the same.
#3 has never made 90.. so we are happy for anything over 60 on that one.
Surprisingly, no sprout yet.
Just finished up the last of Levi’s square bales.
He wanted to square bale it, but you think he was around to pick em up?
Nope.. Lisa and I did it. I hate handling bales twice..
If you got a place to put the straw inside till fall, advertise it on marketplace in the fall..
People will buy the stuff for $5.00 a bale for all sorts of stuff. Including decoration.
We put up about 3-4 thousand a year and Jean sells out every year.
Called it a day bout 10 minutes ago..
Gravity boxes are ready for the oats.. lots of hornet spray later and half a dozen lug bolts and tire swapping.
Going to raise a toast to @sunfish shortly..
Lisa got me some Bulleit bourbon for Father’s Day..
Gonna crack it open..
Seems the year for bad bird parenting..
Killdeer laid a set of eggs in the driveway..
Had to put some rounds on either side of em so they don’t get run over.. it was pissed, but if it weren’t so dumb, I wouldn’t have had to do it.
Sister had the drone guy come spray 40 acres too wet to get on with a sprayer Saturday..
Interesting process..
He sprays an 18’ path.
Gets 2 acres per tank and 2 tanks per battery suitcase pack.
Once the field is mapped, it’s automatic.
Takes about 2 minutes to re-fill tank and replace...
