Interesting the differences in how it is done, here that is how we would plant spring grains, Oats, Barley and wheat. Of course that would be after fall plowing and no rod weeder. In the 70's and 80's here in Oregon's Willamette valley we planted 1 lb for every bushel of yield, so we planted 100 lbs for a 100 bushel yield. This was soft white Yamhill winter wheat. In the 90's with improved varieties we planted 180 lbs to get up to 200 bushel yields. With that much stubble we flail, then a pass with a heavy disk before plowing with a moldboard plow. Then we knock it down with 1 pass with a heavy harrow and seed with the drill behind a rollerharrow. We plant with 150 lbs of a 16-16-16 or 10-20-20 with trace in the drill. In late winter early spring it gets a heavy dose of nitrogen. Allen do you plant hard red wheat? What variety? Do you use any fertilizer when planting? Any in the spring? ....James
