Mine says 52 and 55
This is Planet seed.
Well thats what it says on the bag.
My Planet seed was around 50 TGW last year iirc, I've just managed to buy seed that is like rice this time. More plants per sq m though I suppose, as long as they're strong enough to come up.
Home saved propino here with no dressing drilled 22 to 24 February. Tgw of 44 Just starting to grow away the last couple of days.
Got a bag of 52 tgw planet to try for the first time but that is barely through today. Hope to get a pic next week.
Next door neighbour drilled planet with 52tgw three days after that field with a Mzuri but must have been deeper drilled as not emerged yet. He’s trying variable rate compared to 185kg/ha farm standard.Looks good
Thinking of going at 175kg/ha 52TGW seed
Driiled with Mtzuri next week hopefully
Not sure if i should up the seed rate?
What would the ideal TGW be?
Have you planted yet?

Neighbours crops of spring barley last year were slower to emerge but maybe deeper drilled compared to my Horsch sprinter. They were even and the seed boots now sow wider rows than an earlier version. I don’t know about yield comparison but from over the hedge it looked similar to mine last year. The previous year the seed rows left wider gaps which were evident at harvest and I didn’t think it would have yielded so well. I don’t think you can force a wet seedbed from his comments. Just need to be patient.How do people find the Mtzuri for drilling spring barley?
Just been used for winter crops here so far.
Bolder is supposed to have more vigour, but all the shed bits of tail corn seems to grow behind the combine so......
Not planted as there are sheep still grazing most of the fields yet. The bits that’s cleared is far too cold/wet yet imo. Needs to warm up yet, so it doesn’t sit there feeding rooks.
