    Typhoon winter wheat

    You probably couldn't have picked two varieties further apart in growth habits. Typhoon is slower to grow compared to Extase which is very showy and advanced in growth stages. I'm fairly confident you won't see much difference in yield come harvest.

    Typhoon winter wheat

    We grow it as a seed crop, it's an early driller so a slow burner and one of the last varsities to get going in the spring. Will be there or thereabouts with yield. 👍
