        Im only looking for a couple thousand gallons enough to treat my water for the year. Blairs carries Ammonia Thiosulphate ATS not Ammonia Sulphate. AMS has a desireable low PH and does a better job of negating the binding effect of hard warter ions from what I understand.

                Truflex next yr will certainly help.
                Or..maybe they are watering down round up..no..that would not happen.
                I think you mean next next year

                  Margin grab by the fuking retail. AMS does NOTHING if you use actual roundup, the surfactants are already in it. Don't buy crap.

                  Sheesh.

                    Unless your water is hard.
                    Or your pH is off.

                      1. pH is a measure of free hydrogens. Hard water refers to the presence of free cations such as calcium, magnesium and or sodium.

                      2. Roundup works in a wide range of pH so products like Phix are generally unnecessary. Hence the money grab comment. Retails want to sell farmers addins for glyphosate because margins are so slim on the herbicide.

                      3. Many farmers put AMS with roundup when it is absolutely not necessary ie, they don't have hard water... expecting an increase in efficacy. AMS helps if you have very hard water or a small number of weed species with elevated calcium levels eg velvet leaf.

                      4. If you have a reasonably good water source and use proper roundup products with surfactants already included, save your money for a tank mix partner to decrease herbicide resistance.

                      5. Everything a retail does is to improve margin for themselves. Everything they sell, they upsell to what is best for them profit wise.
