In crop or worked land for spring drilling??Doesn’t look far off sticking out a seed head?
if in crop what crop?In crop or worked land for spring drilling??
That is Blackgrass, !Looks highly suspicious of blackgrass to me, happy to be proven wrong though.
Should have been winter wheat, hopefully spring barley soon.In crop or worked land for spring drilling??
Bad blackgrass field, lots of it and boy does it grow. I know its been a mild winter but that could have a head out in March? Any autumn drilled wheat that hasn’t been sprayed for blackgrass this spring is going to struggle to work now?Looks highly suspicious of blackgrass to me, happy to be proven wrong though.
Bit of a silver lining then.Bad blackgrass field, lots of it and boy does it grow. I know its been a mild winter but that could have a head out in March? Any autumn drilled wheat that hasn’t been sprayed for blackgrass this spring is going to struggle to work now?
That depends on when it established. Blackgrass here varies from the growth stage of your picture where it germinated nearly as soon as it hit the ground on undisturbed soil to early emergence in stubbles sprayed off in late February that will need a second glyphosate dose pre drilling. I'm glad to say that plants in wheat, barley and osr sown last autumn here are not that far forward.Bad blackgrass field, lots of it and boy does it grow.

its coming S Barley!That depends on when it established.

Would it be fair to say that the plant in question is on land undisturbed since harvest?
Killing blackgrass in stem extension is very difficult indeed. Even with glyphosate!
Thanks. I should read the post better!its coming S Barley!
there is no crop its coming S Barley.How much of the stuff is actually there in amongst the crop?
4lts of 360 in 150 lts to be applied in a LEGAL breeze, bigger target..Thanks. I should read the post better!
Still hard to kill though. What would you do with it?
Your opinion, blackgrass needs a good dose when starting to run is my opinion, and not being argumentative but you were not 100% sure it was blackgrass earlier in the thread!!I personally would not recommend someone spray a stubble with just that in it at 4 litres. 4 litres is generally enough to kill off full blown grass leys that have root systems, not piffly little weeds in stubbles.
