[QUOTE="Lawnseed, post: 8139187, member: 110574"] Emmm.. 🤔 Im thinking of a lick of liquid fertiliser. Its absorbed through the leaves so the need for rain to dissolve the granules is not a requirement. Not sure what to spray. Nitrogen and manganese/sulfur. I don't grow cereals. But when I use compost from a recycling facility it can be a mess. If the compost is a bit fresh (still heating). What happens is that the compost uses the nitrogen in the soil as a fuel to break down. Similarly to wood chip on a flower bed. I'm thinking the straw residue on you field is breaking down and starving your crop of nitrogen. BTW compost will work well in year two and there after. Try a drum or two on part of your crop and see what happens.. 👍 [/QUOTE]
