Going to make a start tomorrow. Sunday is forecast for thundery storms. Holiday on Monday so needs must. Better early than too late with the thundery showers forecast for next week.

Only just done T2, and the odd field in that , drilled after maize, was only just ready.
Away until 10th June , so nothing will get done until after then, if at all

+1 not an easy spraying week at all, T2 still not done here either hoping tomorrow morning might get it finished. Need the rain to stay away first thing!
Not a million miles away from you Shutesy and we still have a day and a half of T2 to do. Flag leaf fully emerged and creeping up to 3 weeks since T1 application so would like to get on. Would hope to do a bit tomorrow. judging by the forecast, small risk of a shower tomorrow morning (0900am) and then wind increasing mid to late morning. Been a bit of a pig wind wise when we have needed to spray. might have to go in less than ideal wind conditions from now on. thank goodness for bubble jets! will keep boom low and forward speed down. Happy spraying!

only 10days since finished T1 been advised to wait until flag is fully out before a T2 as it's been very dry up here for a couple of weeks so not much growing, had a light shower last night that might freshen things a little bit but could do with a good 10-20mm to really make a difference, bloody farmers never happy :rolleyes:

Tidy! What variety & region is that? Boots splitting here 20 miles north of the South Coast at 180 - 400 feet AMSL.

0.3 Proline + 0.3 Toledo (teb) on Graham. 0.4 Proline + 0.3 Toledo on dirtier Siskin & Lili Gp 2 millers. All with a couple of litres of mag nitrate. Did T2s last weekend so T3 will be around Open Farm Sunday weekend as usual.

Prothio and teb around .5l of each plus a bit of hi mag but haven't made mind up yet just going to see what the longer range forecast is looking like then adjust rates a little down hopefully That was what we had in mind the other day the agronomist was here.

Cordiale, Cambridgeshire. Just a few meters above sea level I think. Still waiting to go as the frecking weather won’t make its mind up.

My Diego which was at perfect t2 timing Wednesday is now splitting the boot. The rain has really made things move.
