Just got done applying "fun"gicide to the peas. A half section running north and south. Sprayed in crop for weeds with Odyssey in 2013 and 18. The last time there were pulses on that half was in 2013, lentils on the west mile of the half section and peas on the east side...split pretty much half and half. Before that peas were on the north quarter in 09 and the south quarter 2010. The half section has been treated the same since(rotation and chem apps...its farmed as one field). There was noticeably, maybe even remarkably, less root rot symptoms on the west side this year.
I think there is way more at play here than blaming Odyssey, Viper, Solo and a reduced rate of Pursuit.
I can't see Imazamox(Viper and Solo) persisting like products containing Imazethapyr(Pursuit and Odyssey). Some years dry conditions not allowing breakdown of actives and other years too wet conditions encountered after spraying might have as big a roll to play on current and subsequent crops as the herbicides themselves.
There's other active ingredients in herbicides sprayed in previous years that affect pulses as well...then hit them on the head with one or both the Imi herbicides incrop and some adverse weather conditions and BAM...you got to wonder why the peas look "hurt"?
The damage claims came up in the Durum thread too...durum is supposedly safe to seed the year after application but if the breakdown of the actives(Imi) never happened in the season of application because of excessive dryness.....maybe that temperamental shit durum can't handle the carry over either.
Any thoughts?
