@JuliaSoilsister @organicarable @hanslope Previous crop was organic little gem and romaine lettuce. We use a treffla Harrow to pull cotyledon weeds out and mineralise some nutrition early spring to encourage growth

First attempt at Organic Mulika Spring wheat @organicarable @hanslope

[Stirling Fenton @FentonStirling]

@organicarable @hanslope @FarmerBarney Weeds are a major challenge, especially on the fen soil Good early spring growth and timely harrowing gives the crop the best opportunity to outcompete any weeds
