Good signs of spring

No dandelions yet but I'm sure it won't be long now. Cut grass first time. Just a couple days in the 70's and wow stuff greened up. Deer are happy now.
Been planting almost around the clock now for three days. Hoping to finish sugarbeets today. Suppose to start raining anytime now and then for next three days rain. Sure like to get em done so I can switch over to corn.

I just was checking and the lettuce is starting to come up, gonna have to get the fence around things soon. Apple trees are in full bloom but there's storms coming and hail can do a number on the blooms. >:(

BJ...Always a good feeling to get it in just before the rain.18 to 20 hours days for you I imagine this time of year.In the tractor.Sugar beets and corn.Can you rotate them just like soybeans and corn?
Paul....You gotta use your bow and arrow to kill those rabbits if that's what the fence is for.....lol.Our radishes are up & the rest of the garden is a done deal.Stormy weather coming here too for the next 2 days.Nothing too life changing here for us unless a tornado wants to visit or like you say a deluge of hail.Keep an eye out for that teal colored cloud bank.Bad news a coming.

Well finished planting sugarbeets. Ed we usually use a corn, edible bean, wheat, sugarbeet rotation. It's always good to get the sugarbeets planted and up. You can't plant them very deep and it's nice to get them in before it get hot and dry.
