Pretty in pink! The sunshine brought on lots of pink over the weekend and even heading into king bloom for these Silkens.

@farmerschneck Anytime! Hope you have a good start to cropping season

[Victoria Buma (Eastman) @TorEastman]

It’s time! Straw is starting to come off in strawberry fields. If the field is dry enough, remove straw to expose plants to the sun. Late straw removal reduces yield. Crowns in straw covered fields are looking good so far. 🍓

[Victoria Buma (Eastman) @TorEastman]

@farmerschneck Yes, Venture or Poast Ultra + Merge both at the high rate should provide control

[Victoria Buma (Eastman) @TorEastman]
