[QUOTE="The Ruminant, post: 410016, member: 487"] You say it's graminaceous material decaying in anaerobic conditions. Might this explain why rakes appear to work? They 'turn' the decomposing straw etc, allowing air in and encouraging the aerobic, rather than anaerobic, breakdown of material. Also, do you think it's the 'acidic' conditions created by the decaying material that encourages blackgrass, or the anaerobic conditions that encourage both the production of the various acids and the growth of blackgrass? A moot point because the end result (and the obvious solution) remain the same whichever way round it is. Very interesting theory, thanks for sharing. [/QUOTE]
