    I used Glyphos and Heat last yr on lentils germ came back 95, Reglone was 96. I did do 320 ac Reglone last wk just to be safe. Reglone is so crazy expensive why would a person use it when there's others alternatives.

      Have used Liberty in the past in RR canola to help dry the crop down for straight cutting.
      Liberty on canola is not registered. Please don't do that again.

        Germ may be good but what about vigor?
        I ve seen guys spray glyphos and boast about germ, and in good conditions seed will work but in a poor spring it was a disaster every time.

          I agree do you really want to risk your whole next years crop to save a few bucks an acre on chem. Might have germ might even have some vigour but what about the plants other dozen systems like immune, reproductive.... Swather burns like a litre of fuel an acre use it.

            The swather does the majority of the desiccating on this farm.... old fashioned... slow to change hillbillies.

              Generic Reglone (Desicash) will be $14-$15 per acre.

              Does FNA or Great Northern Growers sell a product?

                The vigor was a little lower where I used Glyphos!! But the crop this yr sure didn't show any ill effects of it. I think every seed grew twice.

                  When you look at the size and span of a canola plant at harvest, it's hard to believe that just 100 days prior it was a speck not much bigger than a grain of salt. It is amazing.
