Got a good soaking rain Tuesday afternoon so it is off to the races! Hopefully we can get some timely rains over the next few weeks. Had some dozer work done a couple months ago around the dove field and top sowed brown top millet. It's got the dove reefed up around my place, hopefully they stick around for a couple more months

Keep a disced up bare ground lane through the middle and weekly broadcast wild bird seed from the coop or Walmart or whatever. The doves your seeing now are nesting and the ones they are hatching will be there for you.

If the gw finds any seed besides wheat, you’ll be getting a ticket

Picked up some three way scratch to keep out for the next few weeks. I will make sure it is completely gone a month before and just switch over to top sown wheat sections until season comes in.

So first year growing sunflowers, planted clarified. I’m sure it’s because of soil quality but I’ve got some that are 4 ft tall and are heading out and then the other side of the field the tallest one is is 10 inches tall. Some details, I broadcast planted them and then about 3 weeks after they sprouted I fertilized them with 13-13-13, then about 2 weeks after that I sprayed imizamox on the weeds. Is there anything I can do the help the other side of the field that’s not doing so good??

Is there anything I can do the help the other side of the field that’s not doing so good?? how is the distribution of plants where it’s short? Also, how much sun is that spot getting versus the other you mentioned? Sounds like you got a heavy germination and they are competing or it’s not getting enough sunlight. They can’t make up the difference with fertilizer at this stage in my opinion.

It’s a pretty wide open field, I’m not really sure what’s going on. Do you suggest getting a soil sample before planting next year?

Jap is better suited for moist soil applications, like your duck ponds. It has a maturity rate of 45-90 days, depending on conditions. I would always give it at least 90 days, more if possible, before I expected water to be back on it if flooding. If you can time it right, planting 120 days before duck season is good.
The true mark of a man is not how he conducts himself during times of prosperity, but how he conducts himself during times of adversity.

What can I spray the weeds in my field with now that my sunflowers are starting to bloom
Out? Clethodim is not cutting it.

Are you adding a surfactant with your cleth? Also, I’m sure you know cleth only does grass. If you planted clearfield you have the option to use beyond or a generic of it

Imazamox, just be sure you have clearfield variety sunflowers or it’ll get them too. That was a quick google search of active ingredient so may want to read for yourself. Not liable! lol

Unfortunately unless they are clearfield sunflowers your limited to just cleth for grasses. Broad leaf control would have to be done pre-emergent or cultivated before they get to tall.
What rates are you running on cleth? How many gallons to the acre is sprayer putting out? How tall is the grass? What surfactant are you using?

Yea they are clearfields, I’ve been reading up on the Imazamox and think I will try it, the weeds aren’t awful and the deer got half the field but just trying to take care of the rest that’s left. I’ll have to look and see what surfactant I have and I’m just using what the bottle of cleth recommends. First year doing it and it’s definitely a learning curve. Biggest thing I will change next year is a soil sample and make sure I got that right before I plant anything. I have some that are 4 ft tall
And some that might be 10 inches tall.
