Sclerotinia pics inside canopy--yikes

What is the best way to deal with this. Let it stand and straight cut it or swath it?

If you swath it - at what stage do you put it down?

[furrowtickler]

Scary to see that level of infection with a long, well run rotation.

If you planted wheat there last year, what the hell happened to last years stubble?

[HappyFarmer]

Nice rotation. That's crazy how bad that is in that
rotation. Are you seeing a lot of mushroom in last
years canola fields?

Hopper: this pic was on the headlands and with the Flexicoil style(NH 440A)drill on 10 inch spacing there would have been more ground disturbance. Openers are 3.5 inch paired row (Dutch) and they tend to throw a bit of dirt. Besides the fields were also heavy harrowed last fall. Last years Lillian wheat yeilded about 40ish with close to 16%px. You don't need a pile of straw.

Happy: Honestly, I know what I am looking for, unfortunately I haven't been looking to hard, obviously.

Cut the stem down the verticle axis, and you should find one of those sclerosia bodies somewhere.

Did anyone one consider maybe a Pursuit carry over?

[furrowtickler]

Dog patch, you can see the grey mold in the pic's, no need to cut stems. Pursuit carry over , at that stage?

Jesus Christ Already Man!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cut That F#$kin Stuff Down, Yer Gonna Lose er' All!!!!!!!!! Already Past The Optimum Cutting Stage. You will notice now the the swath gonna stay fluffy and not pack well, Wind will finish off whatever is left.............

Getting close BTO. going to go as soon as some of the "not so infected" stuff in the field has a bit of seed colour change. Likely have to swath at night and yea I know it will be prone to the f-ing wind.

Yer ONLY Choice is to Swath at Night. Don't worry about The Seed Colour Change, Infact thats a Myth. Listen To ME. Its like Corn, Start Shelling on The Tough Side and yous'll end up with more yield versus waiting fer The Optimum Time. Swath That F#$kin Stuff Tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
