[QUOTE="Hartwig, post: 159824, member: 1256"] I`m stuck in the wet here, too. Lucky enough I drilled up most of my winter barley last weekend which is up in rows today, since monday morning we got nearly 60mm up to now with only short dry periods between and no good forecast for next week as well. The plough neighbours go ahead and plough up dry soil between the showers and get it drilled field by field in the dry hours - where I have to wait for some dry days to let it dry from top....... My question now: would it be better to drill early as now and make it a bit too wet maybe to get the crop going and the more days of vegetation would compensate for the (maybe) a bit too wet drilling - or do I have to wait for the right conditions and hope for another dry period ?? I remember the last two wet years here that I regretted it later on to have waited too long, should have started a day earlier after every rain to get the crops in - not sure if that was right as I´ve never tried it..... ?!
