Grass is heavier here for the middle of May, cut back 25kg on the fert and was about 10 days later of sowing. Mild winter has helped I think, very little frost or snow or maybe we've sowing too much fert for years.

Don't know the reason, but I find when mowing round the country some seasons grass is thicker and some seasons slurry grows more grass than usual. This season seems to be both. Didn't get ours in but contractor is 500 acre closer at least. Just need an accurate good forecast! 🤦🏼‍♂️
