Thunder Bay, Ontario, Great White North | I've got the same scenario as you, going to grab the last of the stones tomorrow and then hit the field with a heavy land roller to smash the stones we missed flat.
Have done similar in the past, have rolled barley with alfalfa when everything was emerged and barley was 2-3 leaf, alfalfa the first few trifoliates and never noticed any issues.
I suspect the other commenters may have a different soil type than I do, a nice sandy loam here with unfortunately quite a number of rocks included to keep us honest.
Leaving the rocks is not an option here, I have an aversion to destroying disc mowers. |
