| As shown in the first photo which follows, the radishes that we drilled on 30" rows (2.5 lbs radish/ac with 1.5 bu oats/ac in the interrow) are all deep green in color whereas the radishes drilled on 7.5" (10 lbs/ac) are lighter in color and there are some streaks of much yellower plants.
I think the yellowing is related to the wetness this fall but also to competition for N at the higher density of radish.
The second photo shows Ethiopian cabbage, Hunter hybrid forage brassica and Winfred hybrid forage brassica (laying side by side from left to right). The Ethiopian cabbage started out slowly but now is growing fast.
The third photo shows a 30' wide strip of Hunter hybrid forage brassica with Ethiopian cabbage to the left and Winfred to the right.
All were planted on 9/8.
