[QUOTE="Selectamatic, post: 2469282, member: 2813"] Well, I balls'ed up the sowing and rolling of my Barley! There's too much of it to drag it up, so I'll let it grow and take what I get. Had a look at it the other day and it was desperate for a drink, and/or some Nitrogen, poor looking plants with yellowing patches all over the place. So, we had a nice splash of rain yesterday, with more forecast, so i thought I would give it some 25-5-5, in an attempt to green the job up a bit... Out came my favourite tractor, and possibly the best tractor ever made, Dad's faithful old 880, along with the little wagtail fert spinner, and on went a sprinkle of fertiliser. [ATTACH=full]327926[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]327928[/ATTACH] Hope the bugger grows now!! Between the rolling causing patchy growing, and a blocked coulter on the drill for a few runs, this is turing out to be a bit of embarrassment! Ho hum... On a more positive note, weeds seem to be keeping away ok, a stray spud that I dumped in a row by hand, probably not as deep as the planted ones has popped out, and the field that I am keeping for hay looks ok, so it's not all bad!
