Actually we were ploughing in failed OSR but for reasons of keeping my sanity I like to call it my cover crop not OSR .

Some big furrows Dave ..... skid marks .Managed to plough a field and started drilling it this afternoon . Had to go round a small bit of standing water . Hope it’s dry tomorrow to get it finished .
Yes, not the best ploughing I’ve ever done. You have to ebb her up to get up the steep bank and I was going like the clappers. Power Harrow soon hides it.Some big furrows Dave ..... skid marks .
What wheelingsNot having a pop but I do wonder what it's like underneath when these steam rollers have been over it. Must be more forgiving than our soils. Do these rigs get the wheelings out or just scuffle some squadd over them?
It’s pointless looking over the hedge. You can only use the conditions you find in your own fields.Not having a pop but I do wonder what it's like underneath when these steam rollers have been over it.

Maize ground was ploughing up quite nicely. Still got heavier stuff that you can’t go near yetNot having a pop but I do wonder what it's like underneath when these steam rollers have been over it.

My sister near to you, said they actually managed to plant some strawberries with the machine, not by hand, today.Managed to walk over a field of land ploughed,power harrowed and rolled six weeks ago. Could maybe drill it at the weekend if it blows some more.

Bro in law hasn’t drilled anything else though.
Glad some are getting drilled up but it's so frustrating that we can't turn a wheel. You start questioning your own judgement for when to go, but I am still fairly certain it's not dry enough yet. No neighbour's going either.
You where luck.it poured for a while making everything stick.the two rainbows wher nice though.did you get it @CarbonfibrefarmerYesterday I managed to plough the last few acres of a heavy field I got rained off in last week
Hopefully I can get this drilled tomorrow.
Then moved into another field which can be a bit tricky, it's old meadow ground and can stick to even slated boards like snot to a blanked some years but this year it ploughed up well. It always seems to me that ground always seems better after osr.
@Nick we missed the rain, it looked bad about and I thought we were going to cop it when I headed home to get the drill at 2.30.
