Having trouble closing the furrow in 20# annual ryegrass no till ground. 12# is my normal rate. Sod affect? Closes great in bare spots.

Are you planting beans? And is both ranks of rows that are causing you issues? Check hitch height to make sure it’s not running down hill towards planter. If it’s level or even pitched back a little that will help put more pressure on closing wheels. If hitch is fine then need to increase closing wheel pressure to pinch trench shut.
