years ago I got "unknown seed" for the last half acre of rye to plant,it turned out to be cover crop rye, not the cereal rye varieties we were used to. It grew LONG, lodged worse than anything I ever saw and the yield was marginal. Producing cover crop rye seed is not fun...
In our regular cereal rye we grow for bread flour we use 2 applications of ethephon with 7 to 10 days between, before the heads appear. Hot dry climate will make ethephon obsolete or harmful in higher doses. It works but does not do wonders. | |
