Comment:
Planted winter wheat in the Bio-complexity study, treatments B4, B7, B10, B17, and B20.
Planted with the JD 6400 tractor and JD 750 No-till drill;
Drill setting: 41;
Planting depth: 1.0 inch;
Variety: Pioneer 25R26 soft red winter wheat (treated seeds) (13,000 seeds/lbs).
Acre meter on drill after planting T1, T2, T3, T4, T8nt, and Bio-complexity plots was 63.5 A; (63.5 - 62 = 1.5 A);
Acre meter on drill after planting T1, T2, T3, T4, and T8nt was 62 A;
Total of 51 (50 lbs/bag) total bags used were put in the drill while planting T2;
Total of 136 (50 lbs/bag) total bags used were put in the drill while planting T1, T3, and T4;
Did not add any seed before planting T8nt plots;
Total of 5 bags before planting the Bio-complexity study (not sure how much seed was in the drill after planting ~ 1-2 bags?)
(5 bags * 50 lbs/bag * 13,000 seeds/lbs) / 1.5 acres = 2,166,666 seeds/A;
Seed total after planting after planting T1, T2, T3, T4, T8nt, and Bio-complexity plots (guessing that 2 bags remained in the drill after planting the main site);
(190 bags * 50 lbs/bag * 13,000 seeds/lbs) / 63.5 acres = 1,944,881 seeds/A
