You don't really want to be putting slurry on to close to spraying either sideShower caught us out on Friday and Saturday was wet here.
So plan is to spray today and drill next Monday. What fert/slurry do people recommend when DDing?
Have done this a few times. Bit stressful when weather isn't good and clock is ticking. Did an 18 acre field 5 days after sowing and it worked well as grass was up before old sward started to rot. Sowed kale into good grazing this yr and burnt it off 2 days later put on no lime and had no issues. The rotting sour residue of a sprayed off field in wet weather especially on flat ground is not good.this is one I dont get spraying after seed is sown, will the spray not kill the freshly sown seed
Depends on the time of year - if short of moisture then spraying ahead works well as the moisture levels build up with no grass using it - later on it can lead to a wet, cold seedbed that grass suffers and is a haven for slugs.If time is not an issue, is it better to spray 3 weeks before drilling or does the post drilling spraying work out just as well?
What did you spray with and when , clover dont like someHi, (sorry for hijaking post) just looking at a field we are trying to re introduce clover back into after spraying out a lot of weed in a re seed. Although we have had a nice mild September so far, and there is a nice bit of moisture about. Would it be ill advised to try DD some in now, best wait until next spring? Thanks
Sprayed leystar back end of last year. Wanted to get to it this spring but it was awful dry with us early then into summer. Should have got to it by now but one of those things time has slipped us by. Herefordshire/wales bordersWhat did you spray with and when , clover dont like some
For timing depends where you are but its getting latish now for clover
