Winter wheat

[gone]

The winter wheat is basically finished flowering in ideal conditions, disease pressure is extremely low for the first time this year, the T3, (ear wash) will be very low cost this year, in fact unless we get a good amount of rain I don't see any reason to spend anymore money on it.

Been advised to put half a litre of Teb on next week but I'm thinking it's had enough spent

Depends how much of the forecast rain we actually get. Could turn humid.

Teb is cheap and great on rust, I have some in stock and if we get any rain I will put it on.

Chickened out and sprayed the wheat with a T3 of Teb & Azoxy plus Epsom salts.

Some slug pressure in the last pic.

Some slug pressure in the last pic.

It is a friend's ground after WOSR, he counted 80 slugs under another trap and guessed there were well north of 100 under that one.

No wet spots? No Blackgrass?

Luckily blackgrass isn't an issue here (yet). Plenty of other weeds though. Yes there's wet spots about showing yellow.
Got to be selective and only show the best you know

Lighter soil to the left of the footpath. More clay to the right showing all the wet.

Like my pic yesterday, not showing you the BG I was patch spraying this morning

Pic of the real wheat

Actually that's a good bit. Sprayed off a lot of those BG patches but it's not showing yet. On the up side, it's grown so fast this is the first and only fungicide, boots are split on 95% of it

First drilling of the season

Not going to get much further

80mm of rain in 8 days on sloping sand is no good. Never not been able to drill this in autumn
