[QUOTE="Richard III, post: 5561784, member: 933"] It's quite a cool, moist climate here and slugs are my biggest headache with rape establishment. I have upped my seed rates a little to help, as I was often finding I was ending up with too thin a stand. The seed is home saved, so cost is insignificant. The biggest difference for me has been mixing in DAP with the seed, this turbo charges the rape out of the ground and helps it get away from slug grazing. I think the Sim-Tec is a great rape drill, sweeping the soil away from the slot and moving a little soil definitely helps. I also have a Weaving GD drill and that stays in the shed at rape drilling time. [/QUOTE]
