Drilling anyone?

[ZXR17]

I managed to get 35 acres of Orwell winter barley in today . Went ok but I'm not happy with how tight the soil is behind the drills wheels , Weaving Sabre tine , with only half a ton of seed at a time . Another 35 to go then 130 of wheat .
Then decide how much of the osr to write off .

Lol. Your heavy stuff is lighter than my light stuff. You can keep your rainfall totals though

Got plenty of this

Today planned to drill an easily achievable 30acres of WB but 2 grain lorries, some calibration issues and some hospital visiting ruined that plan.

I have plenty of days like that.

Yer I know, it's a sod. We've only had a couple of mm but it's just enough to bugger the job up again.

Looks like its going to be wet tonight.[emoji25]

Although it's certainly turned up with a shine I think some of my friends who farm some heavy warwickshire stuff would be chuffed to bits if they turned that over , mate who has given up ploughing was down to 4 furrows and no skims on his 250 hoss fergy , I will have to go and take some pics

I started ploughing again this morning and it's still turning over nice despite the rain we keep getting. After lunch I got my mate on the plough and I drilled behind.
The wind was helping the ground haze off a treat.

Will you stop posting pictures of you drilling your sand. Its making the rest of us rather p****d off.
FFS you haven't even got a power harrow on the drill.

I am getting pretty pee'd off with seeing these pictures of it all going lovely.??

Even saw a picture of someone rolling yesterday.
Gets nearly dry enough then rains here plus blowing a hooley so can't get any spray on before or after drilling

 

[4course]

nothing today, rained most of last night and this morning,land absolutely saturated. Im beginning to lose faith in carol there is only so much being lied to a man can stand

Been at the beach again today.

Starting to run out of sand ahead of me now though.

 

[teslacoils]

If it helps, there is still none drilled round here on clay.

How much have you got left to do? Very envious of you being able to get on but its all swings and roundabouts I guess.

 

[Jon]

Nothing here, blackgrass only really getting going now.

 

[AT Aloss]

Any reason you wouldn’t put wheat in after grass .
