canola spraying questions.

[Guest]

1st pass I usually go with 1.6L of Liberty with Centurian or equivalent.
2nd pass 1.35L of Liberty, Centurion if needed
We use a minimum of 10 gal/acre.

Same here
Hot day
Has worked well

We bought a bunch of liberty from Johnsons last January, will let you know in the coming weeks how effective it is. After going to the one pass Liberty system shit show last year we made sure to secure early. If the weather cooperates hope to do all our canola starting Monday.

Works exactly the same as the expensive stuff

When BASF announced that they were increasing the Liberty price by 20% last fall it was a a
easy decision to buy generic.

I guess I am the odd ball.
1.6 one pass.

The way it works for me is to wait until the canola is big enough to be competitive.
The liberty knocks everything down and the canola take over.
For this to work your fields have to be fairly clean because if there is heavy weed pressure early you have to spray early.
I have never put grass killer in and have never needed to. I don’t have many wild oats and volunteer cereals are mainly only on the outside border. If grass weeds do get ahead I will spray the outside border.
I won’t buy Centurion. I never worked good here when it was called Select and I don’t think changing the name made it worked any better.
As far as spraying twice. I find it hard enough getting over the fields once let a lone twice.
Tramping canola down once into the mud it might grow back and fill in but do it twice and those ruts will be black all summer.

I remember the .8 rate.

I had a neighbour ask if we use centurion both passes of interline ( upl 's liberty) and i asked why anyone would ever do that? If you have such grassy problems just separate the grass pass from liberty. Chlethodim ( centurion) is a fantastic chem on its own..but the liberty burns the leaf too quickly and really reduces the clethodim efficacy ( same reason we cant spray liberty/ lontrel together). If you are 2 passing liberty then go with centurion and 2nd pass assure. 2 different modes of action atleast in same chem group and will help reduce any wild oat resistance buildup.

Plus assure smokes foxtail barley ( if you have) and it sort of just chuckles at centurion.

Furrow ( coach ) what's you using for broad leaf chemical for wheat ?

Best bang for the buck ?

We are using Tridem this year . Seems decent so far on the first 1/3 of wheat sprayed .
No crop flash , not a fan of group 2 grass control but so far seems ok .
Will know more in a week or so

Seems to be working very well and zero crop injury
