    Champion winter wheat

    I'm thinking about growing Champion winter wheat next autumn but its standing power rating isn't as good as Graham and Gleam I grow now. Did anyone who grew it last year experience excessive lodging or is it ok with a decent PGR program?

    Is Verydor causing tipping?

    T2 went onto Graham about a week ago , crop was lovely and green, it's slowly turning yellow after 4 days. Is anybody else seeing it? 1 l verydor + epsomicrotop. Extase has also tipped a bit. I've got some insitor to have T2 still but I'm a bit cautious.
