Looked lovely in May. Then it went very hot and no real rain for 3 months. Just died on its feet.

Spring barley is starting shift.
But it was damn cold today and last night.
Not done T1 on wheats yet and no rush to do then either.

just move to the land of your wife you won't be starting threads like thisI know I know not as dry as Australia, but for growing good wheat 5 mm of rain so far this month following an exceptional dry winter is not go to be filling the barn, let's just hope we get a 15mm-25mm before the end of the month.
Every year in the east mids we see to have a spring drought now.
did you notice any better a yield on stuff that had plenty of muck?I'd concerto and laureate yield similar, so not a surprise at all to me.
Yes. Much better yields at home. This was in sandy ground next to river. Got kale/stubble turnips established after harvest and kept cows out till February on same land. So positives too.did you notice any better a yield on stuff that had plenty of muck?
Ash before Oak here - can’t see it on the forecast mind you.Oaks are out before the Ash again too !
Hot and dry Easter due.
