The trial_design column says 2019 Hermitage were "RSP", I thought they were "RCB" as in other years?

Originally the experiment was designed as a split-plot design. The two planting times were blocked in a plot which was split for each spray treatment. Later we decided to treat each time of sowing as a different experiment, effectively reverting the design to a randomised block design. This was for the best, given the time of sowing reps were moved to suit 'planting columns' which had a better establishment.

I will update this to show randomised complete block.
