Just started tasselling here in Western IL on April planting, has been hot and June plantings are suffering some.

Tassels are just starting to appear around the area on some corn. But I took a 20 mile drive this afternoon and found several fields that haven’t reached knee high yet. I’m knocking on all the wood I see, but I’m in a small garden spot that has missed much of extreme rains. 5-15 miles in any direction and it’s not hard to find horrible looking fields.

We just started tasseling south of Minneapolis/St Paul. Our latest corn is about 130 gdu’s Behind the first. Will likely be all done tasseling just in time for the colder weather to come in mid next week.

Either a wide area suffers from their late planted corn and it rallies or the June planted turns out with decent yields. I don't think an isolated county or state disaster is in the cards. I haven't seen any tassels yet but assume some will be visible later this week on the early stuff.

March planted corn is denting and looks good. Harvest starts in 4 weeks. May replant corn is burning up in this Mississippi heat but still has potential. This tropical storm should bring relief, as long as it doesn't get too windy.

Northeast OK is filling ears and should start harvest in 5-6 weeks which is a couple weeks later than normal for here
