One field, three stories.
First, we have the areas where the wheat came up well in the fall. This wheat is already ripe, and has nice big heads. This is mostly sandier soil, which allowed the 0.30" of rain last fall to reach the seed zone giving the wheat a pretty normal growth pattern.
Then we have the areas where no wheat came up until this spring. This is heavier soil, where the 0.30" of rain did not penetrate to the seed zone, but it also has a lot more subsoil moisture. This wheat is still in grain fill (way behind,) but has nice big heads.
Then there is the rest of the field...
