I’ll have to take another photo at the end of the week after a few frosts.
It's -2 this morning here and white over. How is it looking today?

this was ours a week ago, 10days after drilling and no rain at that point
we have had some rain now this weekend so it should fly away

That looks like quite an open seed trench. Do you run the plastic tabs for pushing the seed down into the trench? Much angle on the covering wheel? I doubt it would make much difference, I was just surprised to see how open it looked.
Stupid question, why? Just not getting the yield?Linseed's last chance here - switched from Empress to Bingo, drilled at 800 seeds with 1.5kg/ha AberAce clover. Inoculated with a bit of Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus and AMFs I had lying around.
This was taken on the 30th, before the rains.View attachment 958785View attachment 958786

Yeah just all round a bit naff really. Dad was insistent on the early, short varieties like Empress but they just had no vigour when drilled on the green. Herbicide options are limited and damaging to the crop, particularly now Bromoxynil is gone.Stupid question, why? Just not getting the yield?
Beatles going crazy on it hear just emerging. They are Doing a lot of damage considering there so small.
