Miscellaneous Brassicas

Jonty

Jonty is a fast growing brassica, which will provide cover within 6 weeks of sowing.  Due to its rapid bolting tendency Jonty is best planted in early autumn as a rescue crop.

Pack size 1kg, thiram & sepiret treated

Texsel Greens

Texsel Greens are an easy to establish, frost hardy cover crop.  Their rapid growth is ideal for suppressing weeds.

Pack size 1kg, thiram & sepiret treated

Zoom Brassica Mixture

Zoom is a blend of 50% Winfred hybrid brassica and 50% Napoleon Forage Rape.  This is a very vigorous and quick growing mixture which is ideal for replacing failed crops or patching spring sown crops.  High seedling vigour gives a reliable establishment of a high leaf to stem ratio crop with carefully selected varieties that have good disease and bolting resistance.

Pack size 5kg, thiram & sepiret.  Flea beetle treatment is available on this mixture

Forage Rape

Forage Rape is particularly useful in that it can be used as a rescue or catch crop, continuing until the New Year when it flowers and goes to seed.  A well grown crop with adequate spacing between rows will provide good cover for holding, driving and feeding.  It is largely unaffected by frost and wet weather.

Sowing rate:  2.5 - 4kg/acre
Pack size 5kg and 25kg untreated
