Thanks tallpine!


Same story again today. Heating up but with decent rains. 

August is pod filling for beans. Rain makes grain.

However the heat is not  ideal for kernel filling of corn. The deal there is that we never find out until harvest because heat fill with tons of rain, results in excellent looking plants on the outside and tiny kernels inside.
