[QUOTE="E_B, post: 8210172, member: 5035"] Is that with an Erth or another drill? With the Erth I'd say if it's loamy ground with plenty of moisture, and the dead grass is fairly short, it should be capable of sowing wheat nicely enough. The longer the dead grass, the higher the chance of hair pinning I suppose. The deepest the drill will do is about 2 inches I'd say. Baked dry clay and you'd have not much chance. Conditions are the most important thing. I think the drill would do a nicer job if you don't work the ground, unless there's obvious compaction. I usually use my Mzuri for drilling wheat after grass, which isn't always a guaranteed success which is partly why I changed to sowing beans after grass, but I might experiment with the Erth a bit more this Autumn.
