Had a look at mine at dinner time and it's not looking good at all in fact I was so worried I call my agronomist and he came straight out to look at it.
He said I was the second phone call about this variety.
That strip that is looking ok has had no treatment at all its a missed strip,and yes its on the Heath but I've got other fields the same,got a neighbour with issues too.Is that not where there crop has more access to water I.e drains, organic matter old ridge furrow hedge etc? Perhaps not on the Heath

Yes well spotted, my sprayer ran out whilst doing t1 and it's fine,about 100 yds from the end and I didn't go back to finish that bit,and that bits fine, I did take a picture when I was doing t2 and you could see a difference in height but that's allBut there are strips all off to the left of the photo also?
I will have to dig it outWhat's has been the herbicide / fungicide programme please ?

He doesn't know it's got him stumped.What did your agronomist think?
It looks as though some thing that as been applied has not agreed with the crop,it's just working out what,going to go through spray records on Monday with a fine tooth comb to see if any thing stands out.sounds and looks like your agronomist may not have slept well this weekend if the missed bits are ok our revelation looks the dogs dodahs just a few days later
No I'm on solid fert here.Did it have liquid fert?
