Updated look at crops

 Corn Field was planted April 24th (first field I did), it lost about 10% of its population to poor emergence. Later planted corn is about V2-V3 (or about half this size).
Bean field was planted May 18th.  You can see some spots took longer to emerge due to seeds sitting in dry soil.

Floppy corn

You can see the plant to the left how there's no roots in the top inch do to lack of moisture in that part of the soil.  And you can see the nodal roots are not touching the soil due to the crack.

A little dryer than 3 weeks ago when this was planted

That is a 3 " 12 gauge shell that fell in the crack.
