Nice ! Bob

Thanks Bob. I’m pretty happy with our personal crops. Stuff looks all over the board around here this year. Some fields look perfect and others very far behind and pecky.
GlisGlis asked before if herbicides could be that selective as to kill weeds but not the crops. The answer is yes kinda.
Our non GMO beans are taken care of completely differently than our GMO ones.
We have to kill our cover crops and weeds before we plant our seeds. We generally put down a herbicide much like Preen that people use for their garden and flowers. It stops some weeds from successfully germinating but not all.
Hopefully we don’t have too many weeds escape from our pre emergence herbicide but we always have some. We have to wait for the beans to get just the right size. They need two trifoliates. They will experience some crop damage but should grow out of it.
This plant is showing some damage but ready to outgrow it.
Leave are crinkly and odd shaped.

If I click on page 51 I can use the reply box. When I click on the reply box I can see the replies on page 52. After I post my reply all I can see is the reply I made a few days ago in large font with no way to reply.
Might figure out how to get around this yet but no time now
Hopefully be back soon
