To seed or not to seed?
The question is not about whether it will rain or not, but about seed coating.
I know this will happen at the next workshop, but what will it do?
This is all new to me.
Kind regards
John

my understanding is that coating the seed will/would help with germination and nutrition for the seed in its early stages of growth, @john-everard esp given that our soils will be ‘asleep’ for this first seeding. Regarding the much referred to – ’30 mm’ next week – I’ve looked hard for it – and can’t see it forecast anywhere near us – so I’m not panicking (besides the fact we don’t have our seed OR our seeder yet) 🙂

Yes, looks like there’s no need to panic yet, more like 3mm 😏
The seed coating workshop will be covering compost extract coating as well as legume rhizobia and mycorrhizae inoculation.
At the very least, if you haven’t had the legumes you’ll be seeding on your property before, it’d be worth getting the right groups if rhizobia for that seed from Nutrien Ag.
