Roll it in and jobs sortedView attachment 57704 View attachment 57705 View attachment 57706 Got some redstart in today, 1 pass of the disc and put it out with the spinner. Might not be the best but hopefully it strikes ok!
Already rolled! Would have liked to get it rolled quicker to be honest, was drying out very quick today but hopefully get some moisture again tonightRoll it in and jobs sorted
Low slug pressure will help too
What disc have you? It did very nice work for just 1 run.View attachment 57704 View attachment 57705 View attachment 57706 Got some redstart in today, 1 pass of the disc and put it out with the spinner. Might not be the best but hopefully it strikes ok!
A tolmet, got it back in the spring, impressed with it so far. We had a headland that was too wet and full of roots to plough in the spring and after 2/3 runs you wouldn’t have known the difference, the furrow is somewhere in the middle of the headland in the pics. We looked at a lot of them in the one day back to back and settled on it, couldn’t justify the expense of the higher end makes for what we have here and some of the other lower end ones just annoyed me to be honest. One make there was a few in the yard and the 2 gangs of discs were in opposite order on 2 harrows, another the salesman talked himself out of a sale going on about changing serial numbers and seeders that we weren’t interested in at the time, and one of the other low end makes we’d 0 interest in was definitely being polled on price to bring it too close to the higher end machine they also happened to sell.What disc have you? It did very nice work for just 1 run.
There starting to get the hang of it now! Had hoped to be weaned fully and just have the cows on it but we’ll get there over the next few days!View attachment 59919
They’re in and out to the shed and gettin silage whilst inside, they’ve only been getting a small amount of redstart atm. The first day they went out to it the walked straight through it and cleared all the barley that had grown on the bit that we left unsown and every inch of the ditch. Took them about 3 days to get going on it, now the minute they go out it’s heads down into it and clear itWhat else are you feeding them drew? They look nice and content anyway :Thumbp2:
Learned that lesson a long time ago and just wait until the cold, wet January morning when you walk down the field only to find their after breaking through the wire.....never again!!!!first time sowing a fodder crop and i can safely say never again, unless you can let them into a shed like drew its nothing only hardship and messing, weanlings off the gorilla since tuesday and after today i can,t see them going back onto it for a long time as the field is like brown porridge :cry:

Ive always wondered how it worked out I can only imagine you end up with animals up to there belly in scutter tramping down half the stuff.Learned that lesson a long time ago and just wait until the cold, wet January morning when you walk down the field only to find their after breaking through the wire.....never again!!!!

a great crop, a good bit cut around here with zero grazers and was working well until the rain came now they,re pulling them out with second tractorsIt's grand for the wooly monsters and that's about it really.
What's the crop like?
every earthworm in that field will be down at the bottom of the hill carried along by a sea of mud , you,d better hope those heifers head for ballon when they break out on the road and not the motorway,i,ll be listening to AA roadwatch some morning and they,ll be warning motorists to watch out for wildebeests at the fighting cocks@humungus you must be doing something wrong. Perfect conditions here the only problem is the heifers will not be here for 10 days.
I am having flashbacks to being at early mass and hearing the tick of the Cheetah coming through the speakers in the church knowing the cattle had broken through.
