I hope everyone had a good Easter. We had all the family over at our house this year.  Food was good, the company was good and little Della got her first Easter basket so it was a good day. This week turned out pretty nice, cotton and peanuts are going in, the corn I’ve seen is looking pretty good, and the melons are running off the plastic. So far I haven’t noticed any watermelon fusarium but I’m not holding my breath. We have had a few pest pop up this week. Grasshoppers in strip-till cotton, squash bugs in watermelons, and thrips in peas. Yesterday we got our peanut variety trial planted. This year we are looking at 11 varieties and will hopefully have some good vigor and yield data for you this winter. Stay cool its suppose to hit 90 this upcoming week.
