Cantaloupes and watermelons are coming in. Downy Mildew has been all around us but I haven&#8217;t heard or seen any confirmed in Tift County. Cotton stands haven\u2019t been the best. Some water and a few degrees cooler would help. Majority of the problems have in cotton stands resulted from seed and environmental conditions. We plant a bunch of small seed varieties in Tift County. That coupled with extremely hot soil temperatures has just been rough on us. Also, we are looking for some non-bt corn and tobacco for some research Dr. Phillip Roberts is conducting with corn earworms and tobacco budworms. If you have any please let us know.\u00a0Hold your heads high, focus on the positive and stay cool.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nass.usda.gov\/Statistics_by_State\/Georgia\/Publications\/Crop_Progress_and_Condition\/2019\/cw060319.pdf\">Georgia Crop Report\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We had an event yesterday that we haven\u2019t seen since Mother\u2019s Day, some type of liquid substance fell from the sky.
