    Eye of the wind!

    Wind is going to be the curse this year. Up at 4 to spray get to field get 70 acres and she starts then continues. Good thing solid forest beside on reserve and round up canola. Wtf it's sure windy this year hope no aster yellow from the wind.
    Flee Beatles are going strong but since most have no plants to eat up its ok.
    Look at environment Canada's sat shot it looks like a Caribbean huricain.
    May as well drink a huricain since spraying is now done dor today.
    Wind wind wind.

        That's the wind we were dealing with lately - you can have it . It was brutal here for too long.

            So are you saying that it doesn't matter if you have roundup drift onto forests and reserves?

                  Have you tried to kill a tree with roundup? Its damned near impossible if you're trying hard, I sure wouldn't worry about drift. My brothers lawn behind the trees was another story.

                    You can spray coniferous trees with glyphosate. It's done in forestry plantations with helicopters. This time of year a half litre heck even a litre won't even kill a poplar or willow. After the summer solstice it's another story.
