[QUOTE="teslacoils, post: 7608308, member: 127792"] Because it doesn't take much for it to go from small pain to complete nightmare. And the usual factors : 1) late drilling, IE from 23rd October. We've had several years where the number of days drilling after that have been zero. 2) even then, prolonged dry after that means preem less effective. 3) oh, plant into tender ground then get 40mm rain? Yeah that's no good either. So while the cultural options are all known, if goes wrong you suddenly have a huge mess and the "fix it" choices are three years of spring barley, or at least one bare fallow. [/QUOTE]
