@GrageDustin Out here in the land of rocks & cows, I see those lights start flashing & it's time to STOP!!!! Those are my neighbor's kids for crissake! Could never face them if I hit one of their kids. โน๏ธ
@BerdoMike@FastGrassGuy They need to take lessons from the Whippy Dip in Monroeville IN. Repeat business is the name of the game & I'm going back 1st chance I get ๐
@LouiseCarduner They are in areas of MN, particularly around the TC, Rochester, & the Sand Plains. Saw them there in the late 70's feeding on strawberries being harvested from test plots at Becker. Ick! ๐คฎ Have only seen the false Japanese beetles locally. ๐ชฒ
@LouiseCarduner It's what they do that time of year besides chewing the snot out of things. One of my 1st yrs. on Crop Tour they were bad out east. Must've been some crawling on me when we left the field. Found them in my dirty clothes when I got home! ๐
Coming off #pftour24 with a bang. Dylan Nohner & his crack staff had our PKA Cheviots looking like a million bucks all day. Lotsa class winners. Congrats to Avary Hopper on her Reserve Champion w/a PKA March ewe lamb today & in 4-H yesterday.
Waterhemp vs. Palmer amaranth: look for the length of the petiole on a mature leaf to tell the difference! Palmer amaranth will have long petioles; waterhemp has short ones. #ISUCrops
