    I hope not, still have some to sow here. It only needs about 12 weeks to grow. I'm not doing peas though.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    12 acres to be done here ill put in the peas will have a job to keep the crows away mite try borrow a banger. Want to try and get rape in after its cut to, might take a small bit of pressure off next winter.

    think it should be ok (well i hope so) have about 20 acres to reseed so ploughed and rotovated about 2 weeks ago threw teh barley out with the spinner and covered was on the way back with the hayseed when the tractor got a puncture, by the time i had it fixed the weather broke. Still too wet and windy to throw out the seed, hoping for the wind to die down and the rain to stay away. Grain hasnt started sprouting yet so i reckon i'll be ok spreading the hayseed then rolling.

    seriously thinkign of looking to get an old MF seed drill. I think these can put out hayseed as well as the barley. We used them years ago with teh barly in one bin and the fertilzer in the other.
