Hit with what?

[growalot]

from what the radar is reading a pretty big storm...infact it's gotten really dark out in that last 5 mins. ...there's a lot of yellow and a large area of yellow and red on the radar heading toward NYC...I can smell the rain in the air...

[maytom]

Yes, quite depressing with all the wet weather of late!! Suppose to rain the next three days!!!

[growalot]

Yes it's getting that way...so much for the corn planting...pouring out

[Paula]

Oh. Don't drown growie :-)

[growalot]

 Not to worry Paula if it were to rain enough for me to drown ....at 1900 ft above sea level ....there would  be few  left to notice it...

Anyone have any hip boots? Hard to believe we were in a drought, a year ago.

I planted some corn 2 weeks ago nothing up yet.I think the seeds rotted from the ground being soo wet.

[landtracdeerhunter]

Crops like corn and soybeans are turning yellow here. May be just as well, I haven't planted yet.

Hehehehe..I caught that..I just figured that you had moved to Colorado...

[growalot]

From the smell and smoke coming off our engines after climbing this hill ...talking the new vehicles...I some times feel like we're back in Colorado...lol

Have you ever planted a variety of corn called Bodacious ?  I bought some from a road side stand up state a few years ago and was undeniably the best corn on the cob I've ever eaten . Are you talking about corn that is feed to livestock ?

 

[growalot]

I have planted bodacious and there's no denying it is great and a long keeper...The silver queen has a long growing season and is a wht corn...93 days...I'm planting a 75 day corn next to it a sugar n butter. I like trying different kinds each season I plant...very glad I won't have the farmers field corn right across the street...cross pollination isn't always a good thing...lol

 

If this weather ever breaks I'll be planting field corn down the road...not sure how that will work out...last time I planted this later the cobs never fully developed...but strangely the deer still seemed to like it...eating cobs and all...

[Water Rat]

All the variety's you mentioned are delicious too . I couldn't remember the names of them until you mentioned it. I think I bought them in Franklin County , NY.  The corn that they sell in the local supermarkets down here are terrible in comparison .
