I know the latest date for sowing ST has been covered a few times on here so apologies.
I have 40 acres available to me that we could possibly get in in the next day or two, if I uped the seed rate ,and made it come as thick as cress, would that compensate for the lack of growing time to make bulbs , but make some good leafy feed ? Would broadcast on to cultivated land and roll. Seed at @ £ 2.70 kg thinking 3 kg acre. Not expensive per acre but quite dry atm with only “ maybe “ rain forecast.
would appreciate any thoughts or comments .
