The dew will dissolve it.
Rain when it does arrive will make good use of it. We’ve got a while until harvest yet.
If it stays dry then I guess the N will just be there for the crops in the autumn to pick up.

Looks like we did right putting that last dose on , tho my brother did tell me it was to windy to spread yesterday, in my book it was better on the ground before any rain than to wait for a perfect spreading day.
But 5 mm so far today, gratefully received!!!!!!!

I started at 5 this morning and have been spreading through wind and rain to get it on but I'm glad I did. We've had 7mm today and granuals I applied this am have gone.
Id have liked to have had the final dose on wheat sooner but I cut it back because if it had stayed dried what I had already applied would have been plenty.
I have still cut back 20-30 kgN/ha as it is.

Ive applied the final dose today... takes it to 180kg. Nearly didn't bother but the drizzle we've had has washed it in (or at least off the leaf!)
