Still playing catch up......

Spring is still throwing up surprises, first it didn't want to warm up and now it doesn't want to stay dry.....

Finally we have the peas drilled and rolled in. I'm sealing them in with Linzone and Stomp as soon as I can. However, the frost last night has put me off drilling any sugar beet just yet. Also have to be careful with the wind blowing the fen soil away and the seed with it.....

Our neighbour has started spreading second dose of nitrogen on the wheats, and we'll follow suit this week.

So plenty to catch up on, I know the forecast says it will be a dry week but after last week, when dry days were wet and wet days were dry, I'm not gonna plan too far ahead....
