[QUOTE="neilo, post: 7749474, member: 348"] I DD’ed a 50/50 mix of swedes and kale with the Simtech one year, puttting swedes in one side of the drill and kale in the other, with a few blocked coulters to make the seed rate 50/50. The idea was to end up with alternating 3m strips of each, which worked well. My plan was to be able to lift the fence over the kale strips, to put in the middle of each swede strip as often as necessary. Well that didn’t work very well, as the kale grew so tall it was a job to lift over cleanly, and the lambs were all trying to run under it as I went along. I reverted to putting a new fence up in the swedes, then taking up the previous fence with the RAPPA winder instead. I haven’t bothered repeating it as the lambs didn’t do any better than those on 100% roots, and life’s too short to make the job complicated for the sake of it. [/QUOTE]
