This a view of one of this year's 3-leafers. I pilled it up n one of the thickest emergances... must have been 8 of them right there. Note that the seed is still attached.
To put it in perspective, that's my hand holding the seedling. My palm is 3.75 \" across, and the stem/root is that long. The leafs are extending beyond my hand.
This 3-leafer is bigger than anything that came up last year. Not to sure why... could be a variety of reasons. This 3-leafer is of typical size from the emergant seedlings this year.
