The sunnier it is, the more flowers there seems to beHaving never grown it before, I’m finding Linseed is strange stuff to grow!
I drove past one of our fields yesterday when the sun was shining and was stunned by the colour of it thick in flower. I suggested that Mrs Two tone and I had a picnic supper on a patch of recently topped patch of Flowery Margin, but when we got there all the Linseed petals had dropped onto the ground.

Still a lot of of the previous day’s petals on the floor.

If the sun comes out more later, I’ll go back and take a photo, hopefully with a lot more flowers.
Is that disease or just varietal????
I saw a lot of fields like that down west last week.
Could some of it be mg deficiency, some of the flag leaves look to have intervainal chlorosis unless it's just the light.
Top two are skyfall, clue in the awns.You do not specify variety in any of your 4 pics (3rd one looks different to the 1st).
We've got substantial yellow tipping on the flag leaves of Graham but not (so far!) on Extase or Exsept.

This field of Direct drilled Barley looked horrible all winter . All you could see was the previous year’s wheat stubble. Nothing much wrong with it now apart from the fact it should have had more PGR.
