Never got his double crop beans in either. Everybody else had good wheat. Growing up the Red Clover second cutting was left go for seed and mowed, left dry, raked and then combined. Finaly decided to direct cut it and yield jumped by a fourth as that much was being lost by swathing it. Just can't under stand swathing any wheat or oats.
