Spring Frost

Last night a spring frost occurred.

This is a good opportunity to scout for frost damage in area fields.

The following group of photos were taken by the observation pipe in the adjacent field to the east of Basin A or Duck Pond.

Planted 4-18-2010 Emerged 5-3-2010


In this photo, it's hard to see damage from 6' away.

The following group of photos shows the damage a late frost can do to 3-4" corn up close. Photos taken at 3:00pm






Corn here on Ruby's Farm has not emerged.
