Are they growing any winter Canola in Ontario any more? I have always wanted to plant some here and see if I could get it to survive. Twice i the last 5 years I have had spring canola survive under the snow in winter wheat stands. At least thats what I assume happened because it was blooming when we sprayed herbicide on it. Both those years I swore the wheat was bigger in the spring than when it snowed but that would seem impossible. Anyway where can I get some Winter Canola seed? I need a distraction!

Tried some fifteen years ago and it was a failure. Obviously I'm sure varieties have changed since then.

Where did you get the seed? Fifteen years ago I had never seen what I've seen in the last few years with stuff surviving the winter. The snow tends to come of the lakes here early and heavy. I don't want to do a whole bunch. Like I said I just need a distraction and this one seems harmless enuff.

Try C&M seeds. They were selling winter canola seed for awhile I thought.
