I'm 3/4's done, but I am in Ky. It rained 2.4" yesterday. The forecast is for more rain next Tuesday, Wednesday. If that happens, it'll be April 22 at the earliest before getting back into the fields.
Normal start date is April 1. Anything past May 5ish for corn is decision time to switch to beans. Normal start time for beans is May 1 to May 10-depending on weather forecast.
