Few months later and itās ready to harvest. Mediocre yielder and lodged like crazy (over half the stem snapped off prior to this) ā¦but hey, itās pretty!

Growing my first wheat crop this year (a whopping 50 seeds in a cut flower garden). Itās a 100+ year old European variety with a niche market in the floral and design world. For kicks, I calculated what a bushel would cost⦠$80,990. Makes canola seed seem like a bargain!

Thought I knew plants, but there's always more to learn. The white snapdragons on the left were once the same colour as the right. Placing them near a fruit bowl with bananas caused them to fadeāturns out ethylene exposure does that! #UnintentionalExperiment

As more drills start seeding, we wish everyone a safe and successful season. With dedication, some long days, and a little help from Mother Nature, here's hoping for a strong start to the crops!

Promo item idea: Custom covers for Saskatchewan Crop Protection Guides. While this old DuPont one fits the Alberta blue book, having a company make protective covers for Sask guides would be awesome. #WestCdnAg
