    I am loading up to the max, the stupid part is I make more ruts when half full than full, and travelling 6.5 mph instead of 5.5 helps a lot also. Still seems to do a good job in the harrowed ground.

        Poplar leaves started showing today, plus a few weeds on fields that did not get sprayed or sprayed timely last fall. Worked fields showing some green weeds. Anyways my priority is to plant, my weeds are completely dusted don't think roundup would work anyway, possibly some of the other residuals would help. At the moment no time for spraying. Not on my farm anyways.

            Spraying in high winds...nice. I do remember a few years back a farmer hired post emergence custom spraying and he was spraying by the highway on a reallly windy day. The farmer said, dont't you think its too windy? The sprayer guy said, Its got to land somwhere!!!

              Spraying burnoff in windy conditions, with no crop up, is alot different then spraying post emergence.

                Problem is there is crop up there dave and the clowns with big acres and huge land rents have a gun to their head to get er done - Fricken gong shows. No common sense anymore at all - get more land, buy more/bigger sprayers and who cares what kinda of job you do or who else you effect. There would be a ****in lawsuit faster tahn their head could spin when spray damage shows up. Caused one big set up $35,000 from our farm alone last year. Soory for the rant but some shit is ridiculas.
