Surprised how little has been said about drilling yet? There is bound to be some who have started wheat?
......iv not started [emoji30]Drilling!!!!! Haven't finished cutting beans yet!
Won't be starting till the end of October. Drilling anytime soon just lines the pockets of the input supplying industry.

So be it but one thing I have learnt over 35 odd years of this job is that a crap crop can cost just as much to grow as a good crop ,,,, if I delayed drilling by a month I would still be trying to get a pre emergence on and possibly have more problems with slugs ,,,,, I get the bit that you might be forced into a T0 because of a forward crop but I'd say that's a good 5 squid spent if it means I've got wall to wall good crops of wheat ....... I thought a few months ago you were asking about pre ems because of certain weed issues . Yes they are not cheap but good money spent in my book and last year almost took all the BG out by the time we got to Nov
