I got beans in hours before rain. Yea.
But I had bought a land roller so did neighbors 2 about 25 acre fields first as not knowing them well, daylight best.
I had rented similar unit past years. But rain came, I had to quit due to mud buildup.
It’s been wet since. I also had full fertilizer spreader ready to go. Twice I tried. Nearly stuck.
So worried about rolling. How emerged can soybeans be before you should not roll them?

Since we are at it. I like to drag corn. Only 80 acres. It’s starting to pop up, can see rows. But same issue. *ok drag would go today* over most but that tractor is on fertilizer spreader, or roller. But big for 2090 especially in wet. Went to 50+ foot. Under $200 with cylinder.
One arm slightly bent. Bit of force needed. Easy fix once unfolded with no pressure. Likely bend, or washers.



Roll them at beer can tall on a hot afternoon. Do not roll them as they are emerging.
