Bummer. Have 75 acres that has been submerged 5 times. Just starting to tassel now. Was impressed that it has ears emerging. Little early to pull the husks back to check. Not really wanting to after seeing your pics.

Yikes! When was this planted? Hubby and I took a trip to Memphis the end of May and were shocked at the bad looking crops and so many unplanted acres.

These had good ears, and good silks.. Tassel it lacked.. It was there, but it was puny with nothing on it. Haven't checked some other corn we left, but I'm afraid it's going to be the same.

Well maybe you could explain a bit to a dumazz. Hey ECI , come here these guys might explain something to you! Anyways what happened? If that's from drought we're screwed around here cuz a lot of it looks worse than that.

what kind of disc are you pulling. I know blue should be a clue..... Looks like it is putting all that fodder under pretty well.
