The growing point of a corn plant stays below ground until vegetative growth stage 5 (V5). Which is when the 5th leaf sets on the whirl. Until that point a corn plant is capable of surviving a freeze but you will take a yield hit. Also at that point make sure the plant is not under any stress (nutrients or water) for maximum yields. At that time the plant sets the ear size. If you ever split a corn plant at v7-v8 you can find the ear and the tassel in the whirl. Staging Corn Growth

Half of birds are gone. Well the crews are finishing up.

"LS, tough to find out for definate that your knee can't mend without intervention. I hope it goes well and that you find some unexpected pleasures to compensate" - Eric
That I have... I'm spending some much needed time w/ the wifey. Real quality time, just talking and being with each other. No hurry and do this or that. We were just starting to implement our our plans for "new beginning", which was downsizing, building a much smaller cottage home, and the start of our "slowdown" to really enjoy life. This situation just threw a monkey wrench into the moving gears. I have always believed "things happen for a reason", I'm just impatient to find out what the reason is.

"Beware of any surgeon that owns his own operating theater, Ted. He won't have the latest and best equipment and will try to use it on you even if it's not the most appropriate because he's in hock up to his eyeballs. Find the best hospital in your area, often they're associated with a university, and see if your doctor will give you a referral to an orthopedic surgeon there. Your injury is pretty common among big time sports athletes, so give some thought to looking out of state for one with a good reputation in so called "sports medicine". Now is not the time to mess around with some backwater bush league doctor."--RNG
OK, your scaring me now--- you pretty much described exactly how this all played out: The surgeon has very good credentials from two of the best med schools , did 2 fellowships, one in trauma, the other in sports medicine. Practiced in Austria for a while at a trauma center. The surgery center specializes only in orthopedic surgery, the surgeons contract specific days to utilize the facilities. The facility is well known, some patients travel 1000's of miles to be treated there. Very up to date.
Thanks for the great advice.

Hmm, I would guess that it says even with a roll bar you can turn it over on un-leved ground and that will cause a danger of the ROPS crushing you because this tractor comes with no seat belts.

A good evening to all! Thanks for all the support guys. Nice day outside, but windy all day. Stayed in w/ the wifey today, she kept doing her "chores", couldn't get her to stop. That's ok, I had fun following her around and pestering her.
I wonder how long she'll put up with that? Just taking it easy has made the knee feel much better. This taking it easy Might not end up well for the finances though, spent a few hours trying to justify in my mind about getting a bigger tractor....keep telling myself 'not a good time to do so'. Probably won't, but its fun and interesting to compare all the specs.
Andrew-- nice tractor, looks really clean and in great shape! Have fun and be safe!
Jay-- glad to hear that your knee repair worked good, I was very anxious, but sharing your experience has lessened my apprehension.
Ed-- sounds like they are at least making a good attempt at understanding your mom's situation in order to help her. Keep a close eye- remember you are her best advocate.
David--- I am so sorry to hear about your wife's chronic pain. Difficult to deal with- you want to help, but nothing you can do. Makes a level of frustration hard to describe. Hang in there.
Randy-- you stud muffin-( sorry, couldn't resist) -- I'm so glad you have a new found relationship. Great way start a fresh spring.
Prayers out to those needing, extras out for Riptides, Ed, and Eddie. Again thanks for the support.
