Been well and truely bitten on the bum today, and am having humble pie for lunch.
Field was in grass last year and has a nice rotation, but is very heavy. Cut the silage last year nice and early, ploughed it early. Harrowed and rolled nice and fine. 5 month stale seedbed. Not much junk but sprayed off. Drilled decent seed rate of wheat in mid October. Extra-strong pre-em. Shut gate. Walked in Feb and put happy face on with close to sod all BG. T0 and still nothing. 2 splits of N and still happy.
Well, just been thought it with last N split and now have a very sad face. Nice smattering of BG all over the shop. Certainly not roguable. Not in lines so not from poor ploughing. Not in the rows. Just a light smattering all over.
Field back in special measures.
Poo.
In seed maybe ?
