    glyphosate 41% or Powermax and 24d to kill off existing vegetation

    glyphosate 41% or Powermax and 24d to kill off existing vegetation

    Most 41 percent formulations with the "plus" in the name already have the surfactant in the mixture. AMS is ammonium sulfate. Usually 21 0 0 fertilizer. They have spray grade AMS. If you have hard water it is recommended as the hard water minerals bind to the gly. Thomas Sent from my Moto Z...

    glyphosate 41% or Powermax and 24d to kill off existing vegetation

    You don't have to use the 51% stuff. It's probably more marketing than anything. However I do see most aquatic versions are formulated at 51%. Sometimes I add 2,4D if I have some problem broadleaves, but the mixing instructions are more specific. The order you mix, your ph, AMS, and surfacant...

    Who has used this mix?

    Unless you are in the warm south with little cold throughout your winter I wouldn't think much is gonna come back the following year. You could easily add a "perennial" clover and stretch the plot into the early summer.

    Winter 2019 trapping finally begins...

    I don't trap but I got buddies that do. It's pretty interesting what different areas get for fur prices. This is what they went for last year in the Northwest: https://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,235832.0.html At another auction top bobcat fur price was $1650.

    Professional thermal binocular

    If you are going to be spending that kind of coin you need to rent them first and see for yourself. There is a company out of Texas that does this. When my buddy bought his, he spent lot of time on the phone talking to those guys as they actually use the products. My buddy ended up with the N-...

    My deer seem to not like grains.

    I have planted winter grains in early may and had it head out. I just figured either two things: 1. We had some cold weather roll through and frost the new plants a few times. May frost is quite common around here. 2. The seed had been stored outside over the previous winter and vernalized...

    Triticale Germination

    I know it's been asked if triticale germinates as good as rye. I don't have a definite answer, however I had a bag sitting on my porch and some chipmunk's stole some seeds. It also seems like they have a habit of dropping the seeds as there is about 10 or so of these triticale patches in my...

    Covert camera issues

    I haven't heard anything yet from covert so i hit them up again at support@covert.com. Over the past week or so I had them hooked up to 4.5 Ah 6V batteries and I have been taking volatages everyday. I used an old MP8 Red that i had as a control. You can see the data in the attached pictures. The...

    Regenerative Plotting

    Do you have electrical near by? I have designed systems before that work quite well. I have one system the is fully automatic and can do 4 acres. I think the trick is that people think they need a big system that puts out lots water to make any headway. Most of my systems use zones similar to a...

    Regenerative Plotting

    You ever think about doing some irrigation? Not cheap, but over time it can cut down on seeding rates, failed plots and waisted fertilizer and lime.

    Fall plots and lack of rain

    What is the planting method? Usually the seed will just lay there until the conditions are right. Birds can be an issue...but heavy thatch or conventional tillage can help protect the seed. You can also up the rate 30 percent for extra piece of mind. I had a dormant plot that was seeded and...

    Rye or wheat???

    I have had my rye NOT germinate in September with some pretty good dews....and maybe a tenth or so of rain. This is following some extremely dry conditions. The seed was also surface broadcasted into minimal thatch. This is just one situation. Rye isn't a miracle seed. It does take some...

    Covert camera issues

    At the end of last year I had 3 of my 12 covert cameras draining batteries over a 3 week period or so. Figured I'd would bring them in for the year and let them dry out and try again in late summer. Set them up last month in my garage to re test them...and yep they still drain batteries. Any...

    Best herbicide around pond

    If I remember right, Rodeo, is an aquatic approved gly herbacide. Not sure what exactly is different in the formulation, but i am guessing it's a good bet for what you want. Might want to look up the label to see what it can do.

    Rye or wheat???

    I use triticale and rye here, at 25 lbs rye and 75 lbs triticale. I basically do this because the triticale is about 25 percent cheaper but I still want the rye stocks for throw and mow next year. This is my first year at this ratio. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    Fall alfalfa planting

    I do know that around here, spring planted alfalfa is not frost tolerant. Farmers just prefer to plant in the early summer and irrigate so they don't have to deal with a surprise frost. Not sure what stage alfalfa needs to get to before it can take a freeze, but I would be definitely finding...

    Herbicides for No Till LC Rotation with Marestail

    Have you tried adding and 2,4 D to your burn down mixture? I add it if in am not spraying and planting the same day. I think there is a 14 to 30 day restriction. I add between 8-16 oz or acre. Mixing instructions attached. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk
