Weaving Big Disc

Will be interesting to see how you get on, the dyna drive is a good old tool IMO and shallow vertical tillage machines are getting popular in other counties I'm told. The big disc should wok great and consistently in that situation

It would be a real shame for you not to do just one field zero-till for a few years as a comparison ?

Have you gone for fert on your drill spec ?

No just micro granular applicator. Thought about fert but decided no due to the impact it can have on the equipment so if we ever did it would be liquid and keeping it away from the coulters.

Would the total blw herbicide be Shark? I find roesbay willowherb and groundsel keep coming back and back especially in spring. They are not a problem completely more annoying.

What is the brand of diquat and what do you mean by pre or post em?

Shark is the BLW hebicide refered to, have you tried it ? We have rosebay willow herd in the linseed this time as it survived the gly', but the Chekker seems to be holding it so far. Waiting to see if it recovers or withers. Groundsel seems to have survived the Chekker, not a problem we have seen before, but I think it got a bit too big before spraying.
Retro is the diquat. I meant pre planting or pre em. (clearly a fault in the part between the ears of the part...etc. )

Shark needs to be applied one month pre drilling to stay on label recommendation, works well on cranesbill.
