Clean crop but WTF!!!!

[BreadWinner]

Two words,EXPRESS PRO.

[SASKFARMER3]

That's what I mean when I say it's a WTF moment! When your crop checking! My hailed out ones looked like that!
Hit the chem company hard!

[BreadWinner]

I have a neighbour asking for just shy of a mill from DuPont. They claim a poor sprayer clean out. Smoked 3000 acres of canola and 500 acres of peas. All from a little white residue that won't clean out.

[cottonpicken]

Holy shit.

How many acres we talking?

[bgmb]

Breadwinner, what chemical? We had sundance issues in the late 90s monsanto was good to deal with on that one

[BreadWinner]

It was Express Pro.

[bgmb]

Is there a good reason to use express, heat, prepass..... other than chemical company marketing? why not just use a higher rate of glyphosate?

[Braveheart]

Different modes of action, to help delay roundup resistance.

[Klause]

We use half rate of express sg with glyphosate every yr on peas to take out volunteer canola and broadleaf residual.


As evidenced by crop pics we do not have s problem with it.


Furrow mentioned often enough about heat this year. That's Heat not express damage

[SASKFARMER3]

It's not express sg. We have used half rate on peas since it came out even a year before on tests plots. We use half rate for peas never a problem. One note were black soil zone.

[bgmb]

Group 2 resistance is way more of a problem than roundup resistance. No money in selling roundup so chem companies have to come up with new fancy more expensive names to do the same job.

[freewheat]

The reason to use some of these herbys with glyph, is to
a) Kill volunteer RR canola
b)Provide residual control of some weeds like cleavers and volunteer canola
c)Delay glyph resistance like they have in the US from using glyph alone so many times sequentially
d) to sharpen the glyph on certain weeds it is weak on alone, like large cleavers, or really, large anything.


I used heat at the high rate on my pre-seed peas this year. Worked awesome. Holds down cleavers and volunteer canola for quite some time.

Express pro IS NOT plain Express. Pro has Ally in it, and has strong residual.

[bgmb]

i guess we since we dont grow roundup ready and use 1L minimum of roundup not a problem for us.
