Comment:
Planted soybeans in the LTER T4 treatment. Reps (6, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Planted with the JD 7330 tractor and JD 1730 planter. Planted Viking variety .2265 organic soybeans. Planting depth: 1.25 inches and row spacing was 30 inches. Due to human error setting the planter up the population was 90,000-95,000 seeds/A which is half of what it should be at 180,000 seeds/A. It was decided to plant an additional 85,000 seeds/A in the same tracks using GPS/Auto Steer. The additional 85,000 seeds/A was planted June 5, 2015 reps (5, 6, 1, 2, 3, 4) giving a total population of roughly 180,000 seeds/A.
