Check the chem labels for plant back restrictions.
I think imox has like 4 months on cereal grain and 8 or 9 months on field corn and sorghum. just something to consider.

Don’t spray anything on blooming sunflowers.

Let them completely dry and burn the whole field with glyphosate

I have to do this every now and then. I bushhog strips to run the tractor
in when they are completely dry and burn the field with glyphosate

You have to wait until the back of the heads are brown. If you don’t
the stalks will break off at the ground

My first planting got flooded out. The 2nd one did too but
I was able to bring them back with a lot of nitrogen

They aren’t perfect but they are decent. I have 4 strips this size

I’ve got a broad leaf weed situation now being that I didn’t plant clear fields and killing the grass left some spots open. Planning to boomless spray over the top the second week of August. Mine are now face down.

Wait till the back of the head is brown.

I have had to wait until the second week of the season

You should be able to dry completely out before the opener
if they have already turned under

We talking just brown across or deep brown? What do you use for a chemical burn down? I usually use gly but wanted something that was faster and killed the tissue more than a total root kill. Also, I’m thinking about mixing in a pre emergent when I spray. What’s the advantage to waiting till the back of head is brown? Just trying to learn fully.

Brown across the back of the head. It’s the last part of the plant to turn brown. Years ago
we sprayed several fields too early and all of the stalks broke off at the ground.

We didn’t lose the seed but the heads were in contact with the ground. It’s better to have
the stalks standing for longevity. We hunt all 3 seasons. If you plan to just bush hog all
of the heads it won’t hurt to spray them early. Just make sure the seeds are fully developed.


I just use glysophate. Most gly has a surfactant in it now.

I have been loaded with white wings the last several weeks but several corn fields close by
are starting to get cut. I am expecting them to scatter soon.

Unfortunately, I am dealing with the same situation. They started cutting all the corn two days ago, so I expect my numbers to dwindle

Depends on when it was planted.
If it’s for opening day I would be spraying it now.

Bush hogged the outer edges and field where they may fall along with some strips where I saw low germination. Will add more strips next weekend and top sow the following. I’m surrounded by corn that is ripe for harvest any day. I’m sure I’ll lose birds but hopefully diversity is the spice of life for the sunflowers, wheat for winter planting and a canola area being a cover crop
