Farmers Getting Late Start In I Spring Planting
Lorain County farmers face a late start for spring planting after two weeks of heavy rain and cool temperatures. Early crops like cabbages and radishes await sun and warmth as ground remains too wet to seed oats and early potatoes. County Agent Carl E. Deeds notes fruit crops may benefit from the delay and predicts a fair but not record 1950 apple crop. Remaining warm season crops such as cucumbers and melons will be planted mid May. April rainfall may presage a dry summer if totals stay high for the year.
