  • In the third stage of our No Till Crimper Roller experiment, we continue to hunt for that 'Goldilocks Moment' - when is the perfect time to crimp our rye/vetch crop?
    This week we attached a seed drill onto the back of the roller as an experiment. When the crop is successfully flattened the next stage will be to incorporate the next seeds through the sward and into the soil, either by drilling or broadcasting.
    As you’ll see, the drill proved problematic, which could have been due to the wet weather, or the crop’s lack of maturity, or just because the particular drill we used was not suitable.
    We’ll be having another go next week when we will also be rolling again in our continuing quest to find out whether it’s going to be possible to use this innovative technique across fields in the UK.

    The original anti-plough activist used a modified (weighed down, well-oiled) disk harrow. Wonder if weighing down the roller-crimper even further would help with the kill rate.
    On a garden scale, I'd jump or dance on it.

    a sickle mower would get the job done, then use a no till disk drill, hoe drills plug too easily.

    Could you not just mob cows on it to trample and graze it first?

      are you autistic? I'm asking because many people I know (including myself) are and many of them (not me) report that music makes it difficult to understand or even listen to people speaking over it
      I promise I'm not trying to troll.
