2nd week oct drilled with triton , 2nd winter wheat with pre-m, Lilli, no BG, very thick. must have pre -m when oct drilled . very good crop interesting to see yield meter on combined, drilled at 200 kg ha+ 3lt amino a ha.View attachment 817434

No wonder its thick, drilled at 200kg ha second week October. I don't think the drill has anything to do with the result.

I thought the whole point of the drill was so that you could sow wheat in Nov or Dec, after the main BG germination window, and still get a sensible crop. Showing us pictures that could be any drill anywhere doesn't prove anything.

I have land like that, clay loam very high in Mag

I have discs, just know when to use them
to solid for roots to penetrate when dry eg poor crop or rotting when wet my soil runs together at 1st shower cannot stop it, has plenty of organic matter ,ph 7.5 no one in my area can direct drill that why i bought the triton, one shower stops drilling. one round and out of field .will triton improve my soil !

the point of the drill is to sow any crop any time

I would have expected to hear of 5t/AC Triton barley crops by now. December drilled, into snow, etc.

Have you not been paying attention @teslacoils ?? Barley is for clueless peasants. Where its at, in Triton land, is 'rotations' of seven wheats, triticale and spring wheat, puddled in with a Triton in November and fed AminoA Flo umpteen times - then all you need to worry about is how you spend all the brass! Simples....oh yeah, the aforementioned will eliminate blackgrass too #bonus :rolleyes::eek::p:D:ROFLMAO::whistle:

Mrs Teslacoils doesn't know, but I am secretly lacing some body spray with AminoA and applying a light spritz to the inside of her bra. Seems to work on everything else.

If only I could think of a nickname for my cock so that I can declare that it "performs in the wet" and "beats a good ploughing".

If that doesn't bump me up the "likes" then I'll get my coat.
