The roots are knackered. Chewed off by cabbage root fly larvae or drowned. And it’s covered in rubbish as we couldn’t get any herbicide on. Looks like it will be spring barley. It’s just not worth spending big time on herbicide now. I’m glad in a way. Less stress all round with pigeons, hailstorms etc. Future will be stubble turnips for the sheep followed by a spring crop. Oddly the few stubble turnip volunteers amongst the OSR are massive and stand out above the miserable flat OSR. Had some turnips for dinner. Lovely.
