In Ohio from June 5 through August 15 we only had 1in that was on July 1st. On the hill tops my beans only had 5 pods per plant. Normally they have 20 to 30 pods.  That did not help the race fund.  :noplease:

We had a decent year here. Our early corn we chopped for silage, our mid season corn made 80-100 bushel and our late made 200+ bushel which is great for this area. Out beans did a little over 70 bushel and had 4-5 good cuttings on most alfalfa b
