pcp, H2O is just a flowable instead of emulsifiable. Same stuff, just stains less. And less chance of splash when mixing...
And stick with glyphosate on the johnsongrass, fusilade is junk.
Thanks for the info! If fusilade is junk on johnsongrass, it is sure expensive junk. I will stick with the cheap stuff.
>>>PCP, I don't figure it will do much good on keeping the sicklepod from coming up, but maybe it will keep some of it out. We have a rope wick, so I will be using it on the sicklepod once it gets taller than the beans.
Your plan on the johnson grass is good. If you try it again next year you might want to go with soybeans so you can spray it more times. Corn gets tall quick enough that I have trouble getting good weed control in it without knocking it over with the sprayer booms.<<<
Broadstrike will keep sicklepod from coming up; I don't know how it would work in a wick, but probably far better than Prowl.
I went with corn instead of soybeans because the deer won't let soybeans grow at all on my place. They eat them as soon as they come up and that's it. I planted the corn in a rather "unique" way.
Just mixed the seed with the fertilizer and threw it out with my spreader in "rows" that are about 15' wide. Then I left about 10' between the rows to run the atv down and throw the gly up into the corn. I may be wrong, but I believe that I can keep the entire field clean of everything except the RR corn.
Sorry to hijack the thread, but maybe Turfgrass can help me with this one - one of the fields I planted this corn in is my best chufa field. It has a good mix of volunteer chufa, yellow nutsedge and purple nutsedge. I'm planning to keep hitting it with gly all summer and try to at least knock the nutsedges back so that I can grow chufa again for a couple of years. I've got no illusions of wiping it out; just knocking it back some. Anything I could mix with the gly that would help? I could wait until the corn is made to use it. Thanks for any ideas.
