    Putting on anywhere between 8-12 US gal / ac , so 18-25 Lbs S
    You get 15-20 N as well .

    1200 gal sprayer I can get anywhere from 100 to 120 ac for the rates we use.
    Right now I am using T Jet Tri stream nozzles. Spray 16-18 mph . Can apply up to 30-40 k winds . Drift is not a worry with stream nozzles but too much wind can cause a mess on the booms a bit.
    One thing I also do is use flat fan .08 at 10 gal/ ac with round up for burn off.
    You can use less round up and it works very fast .
    I have even used round up / treflan and sulfur together ahead of canola or peas . Wind is obviously more of and issue with the flat fans , no different than regular spraying .

    Most liquid S is 15-0-0-20

      Thank you.

      Can you use the aim command?

      So you use just fertilizer with the roundup for preburn, no water at all?

        No I don’t use the AIM , shut them off and use the normal nozzle in front.
        We need to change a couple settings in the product control.
        I will pm you the settings we use. Keeps the sprayer working effectively without AIM when using liquid N or S.
        You don’t need water at all when mixing round up . I just direct inject round up then load sulfur .

              I wonder if any wild oats that managed to sprout or any sprouted volunteer cereals, flax or canola can survive minus 7, minus 8 with wind chill. It's been freezing here since 9 p.m. last night. Probably will be freezing here for at least 12 hours before the plus temp is reached.

              Mother Nature's preseed burn off.

                I know one year the -10 nights for 6 nights in a row turned the kochia white.
                I think and canola that has “sprung” with these temps could be in trouble. Hutts have a good 800 ac in, would be a taf bit worried.
                But these companies have a re-seed program.
                They should have strict guidelines as to when seeding canola should actually takes place.
                They do have guidelines when chemicals should be applied.
