Drilled a couple of fields of winter barley on Saturday and wondering wether to get them rolled tomorrow before rain Wednesday or leave till the spring. Ground conditions were reasonable but certainly not perfect for barley with the very odd damp patch. Having a glorious day today and the top has dried out nicely so do I take advantage of the current weather or would it be better left till spring ?
Could also ask the same question of a couple of fields of wheat but I guess that would be more tolerant of wheelings.
Just thinking if rolled would give less opportunity for slugs to hide
