The easy answer is yes.

To complicate the decision-making process is that many seed companies offer reduced replant coverage with untreated seed.
So, right or wrong, we get some of both, use the untreated where slugs are more likely to occur, using the treated where seed corn magots and other seedling insects are more likely. Then when we get a week of rain after planting and the soil goes anerobic we simply order more seed.



Hi TT another exciting year ---bought up additional replant insurance --hate to use it
I still love farming :-)
