Heavy Sclorotinia

Isn't platinum cheaper than Lance?

I think it's cheaper than Lance isn't it?


Plus you sre killing the spores so there's no disease to begin with. Wish we would have put it on before lentils it would take care of a lot of wHite mold issues.


For us it's also timing we custom spray so we often just don't have time to so our own.

What happens when the spores blow in from the field beside you? One mushroom releases millions of spores and it only takes one to infect the plant. They can blow a long ways.

Sclerotinia very bad in manitoba too. Everyone here uses fungicides, if you didnt the crop will be very very diasapointing. Lots of black dust, need to wipe off the swather windshield quite often.

IN my part of Manitoba everyone also uses fungicides. A couple weeks ago I told one guy that I did not spray for sclerotinia. He looked at me like I was from another planet. lmao

I have about 2-3 infected plants per acre. My crop was early and was blooming before we got rains. The brix was also high. From the road it looks like it should be swathed, but the seeds are just starting to turn

Good to see the reality of high brickle and low disease . Farmers need to rethink plant health not bandaid solutions offered by Chem companies .
But unfortunately products that help sugar levels are precieved as snake oil by most of the Ag industry - pushed by Chem and line companies to keep farmers blinders on
