You know you shouldnt beileve anything you read on the internet....i made the same mistake as you....look where it got me thats why im not taking too much notice of whats being said on here

we swap and chop it about through the season, the heavier stuff thats always spring cropped, gets ploughed deep, 3 x 16", while its half dry, then as it gets later we go to 4 x 14" to do the kinder land and stuff coming winter cereals it works for us, thats the main thing

Its right next to the main road, and it hasnt been drilled yet. We never autumn drill that field, its not cost effective, its better to let the winter do the work

nothing wrong with being "frugal" as i call it Il admit, there are worse places, i might be up your way soon. Other half has always wanted to go on a steam train, so a trip to the north york moors is being planned for just before harvest

but its in the rules apparently.............:ROFLMAO: Soils vary. Say we was now in august, i could take any plough whats been in a hedge for 30 years, plough two breeds down our number 8 field and it would be as bright as a sixpence, its just the nature of that land, its got the weight in it...

havent got the time nowdays, as my longer absences on here and facebook indicate its a mix of getting older, a wider circle of friends, family, and the work diary being fully booked, plus enjoying the finer things in life

Indeed maybe i have yorkshire blood then, as i give nothing away either This is what i see as ploughing...i can achieve this day in day out all winter...to me, an entire field ploughed up and down to the road, with stripes in it like the village cricket pitch, has as much attraction as a...

indeed, and they have probably spent a great deal of time and money to get that far had i had a set of narrower tyres, bright boards, the cross shaft 3" further over, who knows wont know now till august, as that will be its next outing, on something what will certainly brighten it, or break it...

No ive had far better advice from a member on her who i wont mention, who is to the point, but without the vitriol, acidic tounge and self righteousness that you seem to posess in greater number than trophys

No, nor were 75% of the pots in the middle row opposite me was one lad with a JD, and someone walking behind him pushing the blocked straw out with a spud as he went along.... in the end, he decided his best option was speed and shallowness...to which he did effect some kind of job

well i learnt a lot from your website obviously................ most of which you then told me was wrong!!!

So if needs be you would rake the entire plot before dropping a share in the ground now come on, even i know your taking out of your arse now

There were 3 rows of plots...lower end reserved for the horticultural class middle for the working class, upper end of the field for the posh men. The middle part of the field had been topped, all the plots had been set at an obtuse angle to the field boundary, leading to quite a bit of...

or just someone from that particular county who currys favour wit the judges....................
