Is it really worth growing wht?

[Partners]

I'm in the same boat as tou.

Have had luck with Cardale but no midge resistance.
Utmost will be the variety we are leaning towards that is midge resistant.

Utmost is MS for fuzz...All of ours graded Feed last yr..

Wakopa, how much have you pushed fertility with ac Brandon ? N specifically ?
This was our first year growing it, had it beside Carberry . Was 5 bus better with slightly better protein and held a better grade , 1 vrs 2.
I did not push fertility much as we were very dry in June and mid July.
By the looks of Brandon , fertility can be pushed a lot without much issue or ever relying on growth regulators .

I agree give it all you can won't lodge only where you accidentally double up and growth regulators not needed. Gave up on cardale carberry.

But wheat is a filler.

Next week wheat tour from Texas north depending on storms. Tornados yesterday Nashville St. Louis etc. Road boy known yet.

Storm chaser.

137 n -10 sulphur - 40 p - 30 k - 1 copper - 2 zinc - 2 manganese . 70 bu acre . There are farmers that do a better job then me and get higher yields .

Wakopa, I used to think I used a fair amount of n. I put 82 lbs on my Penhold wheat and it will still lodge a bit. If I put on 137 it would be flat as a board. Still yields 75.

Yikes too far. That's lots of fert for sure must be strong straw.

Interesting that Brandon can stand straight with 137# N.
It is short so that works in its favour.

Cardale will flatten out at that rate.

[wakopa]

normally put on 100 lbs. soil test said 137 so thats what i did.brandon stands up good.

Thx wako, that's kinda what I was thinking of pushing for, 100 to 120 top end if weather / crop is good . I figured Brandon can take er .
