It scares me that some people use just a SU on its own year after year also I'm finding I'm having to use more ally/hiatus type SUs in all cereals to tidy up BLWs. In the olden days when I could use ipu/ctu that did for all BLW and the only crop that got an SU was spring barley one in 3 or 4 year in the rotation.

Has anyone got any ideas on a broad spectrum BLW spray for spring barley that avoids SU so rape can be established without worrying about residues.

Would pendimethelin pre-Em be an option
