Synopsis Soft red winter wheats decreased significantly in test weight, increased significantly in kernel softness, and increased in amount of fine flour produced during milling of samples obtained over a delayed harvest period of about 45 days. Protein and ash percentages were unchanged. Small changes occurred in flour viscosities, dough miring characteristics and in cookie size and top grain.
