My lawn is more brown then green. Has been for weeks. The last time I mowed was just using the week whacker to trip around the house, the one tree we have, and some die-hard weeds on the lawn.

But, my lawn get blasted with sunlight most of the day. Barely any shade until the evening. So it gets burnt fast. It's not growing, and I am OK with that. I don't like seeing a brown burnt lawn, but will take that over mowing every 3 days with heavy rainfall.

 

We do need rain though, for the crops people sell to the major food markets.

We got enough rain last night to barley knock the dust down.  I've got 25 + lawns.  I mowed 6 last week.  I'm even skipping irrigated lawns that are in full sunlight.   Most of my lawns are 1.5+ acres.  Now there 1.5+ acres of desert.

Moving in to our new house end of the month lol. Time is running out for me. My beans are kneee high, probably going to kill a share of them if i spray with the atv.

I just took a drive down through southeastern Niagara, and northeastern Erie Counties. Some of the corn that could be panted early doesn't look to bad, as it begins to tassel out. Other fields, the bottoms leaves are drying up,  wilting, and looks stunted. Several fields of no till are going back into the soil. We have had .15 of an inch the whole month of July.

That is crazy. Here in central Steuben, according to my farmlogs account. My fields are 36% drier than average. That is after the .6" of rain we received monday or whichever day it was. I know a friends property in Wayne County is over 40% drier than average. I would imagine you are as bad or worse off than that. Hope the forecast for next week holds true, possible storms everyday almost.
