Assuming your seed quality is similar to what the neighbors are planting, uneven emergence is can only be caused by a few things: - uneven seed depth - uneven seed to soil contact (uneven closing of the seed slot) - uneven soil conditions above the seed (crusting) due to the way the seed slot was closed. There are many things that can affect each of these items. I would look at a neighbor's system soils etc and compare each of the above to your system. Your uneven emergence could be caused by many different factors influencing the 3 characteristics above. Jim at Dawn |
