    Nitrogen in seed bed

    Tbh, I don't have autosteer, so relie on following a light bar for seedbed N. Splitting means I'll have less chance of misses!!

    Nitrogen in seed bed

    That would be my only concern. Usually split the dose, seedbed and then tramlines visible. Drilled some yesterday, for one reason and another, won't get fert til Monday. Looking showery so might stick the whole lot on. I suppose it being later drilled, one has a much smaller window to "hope"...

    Nitrogen in seed bed

    Surely a plant can only use so many units per day. So why the hurry to put it all in seed bed? Could still be split

    Mole valley closing depots.

    Mvf cheaper, and I wanted some for tomorrow morning. I was going past anyway. Too their credit, some things they see I cannot find cheaper elsewhere

    Mole valley closing depots.

    I asked to speak to the manager, as I couldn't really believe it. Wasn't overly apologetic, and more of a matter-of-factly about the lack of staff. I will just get it elsewhere.

    Mole valley closing depots.

    Popped into mvf store on way past to pick up Cydectin. Could see the stuff behind the counter, 3 ft away from me, server was stood next to it, only to be told that there was no one working qualified to sell it to me! There was someone there yesterday and there will be someone tomorrow. Loads of...
