Early Riser And Late Bloomer

     It's Monday morning, I'm sure you've noticed. Are you up bright and early? These are...


     These are the sprouts of the alfalfa seed that was planted just a few days ago. That's quite a feat, even for these amazing little plants.


     They are quite numerous and the time they spend growing this fall will give them a big boost for next year!


     This seed popcorn, on the other hand is still just growing. In fact, the ear I picked at random was still developing.


     It's got quite a ways to go. Many others are much more developed and it won't be long until they're all fully grown.
     Farming isn't really something you can schedule. (Not very precisely, anyhow.) Some crops will surprise you and grow like crazy, while others may lag behind. At the very least, it keeps the farmers on their toes. Blog authors too. (Blauthors?) Enjoy your Monday!
