Planted winter wheat in treatment 3 and T8nt plots;
See notes for specific dates replications were planted;
October 31, 2000 planted T3, reps: 1 and 3;
November 1, 2000 planted T3, reps: 2, 4, 5 and 6;
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, and T4 was 61.3 A; (61.3 - 15.1 = 46.2 A);
Acre meter on drill after planting T2 was 15.1 A;
Total of 136 (50 lbs/bag) total bags used were put in the drill while planting T1, T3, and T4;
I would guess that 2 - 3 bags were in the drill after planting T1, T2, and T3;
(134 bags * 50 lbs/bag * 13,000 seeds/lbs) / 46.2 acres = 1,885,281 seeds/A;
Seed total after planting T1, T2, T3, and T4 (guessing that 2 bags remained in the drill after planting the main site);
(185 bags * 50 lbs/bag * 13,000 seeds/lbs) / 61.3 acres = 1,961,663 seeds/A;
Did not add any bags of seed before planting T8nt plots;
Acre meter on drill after planting T1, T2, T3, T4, and T8nt plots was 62 A
