Subject: RE: too cold to plant?


SW Minnesota
We started Monday and had two and a half good days running. Soil temp was 50+ Sunday Monday and Tuesday. It dropped Wednesday and we had a half inch of rain overnight. Alot of corn went in around here. 25% planted in the area, we are about a third. A year ago we planted corn April 28 and got 7 inches of snow the following night. It probably lagged 5 bushels from everything else. But last spring ended up being a 2 month long season and I was sure glad we did it. We didn't push terribly hard this week but just kept going, and if this spring ends up like last year and turns wet, I'll be glad we planted what we did. My opinion, grounds fit, 50+ degrees, and dry, go plant. Unless of course you can plant all your corn in two days.
