Spec wt relies on grain filling from the flag leaf, so depends on how heavy you went at T2 more than what goes on at T3 (unless T3 is aimed at further flag leaf coverage)

The strobe is aimed as a flag leaf top up but I do wonder if the money/chem spent on T3 could be added to the T2 to save a pass but would it extend the protection period???? T2 lasts 4 weeks going back a fortnight later with T3 would surely add another couple of weeks????

I know the biggest bulk of it does plus sunshine and moisture but was just seeing if anyone put anything on that had any other impact on spec wt. T1 was revystar and t2 univoq so not overly worried about disease.

Looks like anthers are visible on some of those ears and I would anticipate more being visible in next 24 hours…. If the aim of your T3 is about reducing fusarium/michrodocium infection I would crack on tomorrow without hesitation.

Similar dilemma here (minus the holiday) not quite there but 20mm forecast Sunday so better slightly early I am guessing

Only 12 days since the ‘t2’ when the ears were half out.

Bloody he'll we only fid t2 2 weeks ago, gleam has ears out but saki doesn't. Plus if I go now it will have run out of steam before the end of the month. If we sprayed everytime it was going to rain it would be very expensive.

Does this raise the chance of having to do a T4?
I think it’s more about hitting the ears when in flower, rather than topping up T2. Everything is a good week early here

Yes. Some people more aiming for a rust top up in which case a longer gap is better.
bloody hope not i think huchinsons have had our pants down already. time for a independant i think!

If it rains it wants to be on before
t3 is a protective spray no good if late

I've the top up from the univoq t2 still to go on. Will do it tonight and tomorrow as Sunday looks like a poo day.

Is it active yellow rust, or dead coming out onto the leaf? I would suggest Tebuconazole to eradicate and some strobulurin to help protect. Ask your agronomist. Can I presume you didn't include any teb with the Univoq? Alternative would be Syngenta's Solatenol which is in Elatus Era - but that would be quite expensive. Teb half to three quater rate with 0.4 pyraclastrobin if me. Let us know how you get on.
