Hi,

We're about to do our first compost dressing of winter cereals (using a mill and mix hopefully).
I just want to doublecheck the rates of compost:seed. Not extract, but raw compost rates (by weight or volume).
And also, what people feel are the thesholds for total liquids to apply to seed?
Drills will either by Systeme Chameloen, or Vaderstad.

Any tips gratefully received.
Cheers
