@drummer_bruhaha, could this be developed into a webinar?

Hi Rob

@drummer_bruhaha, could this be developed into a webinar?

But you wouldn’t get pastry’s and a very nice meal

Just got chance to dip my bulk water tank, only the first marker change fully and the second one changed slightly, mains fed water supply, not much hard water round these parts

@drummer_bruhaha - what do these strips "show" as such please? I assume they are a measure of pH or salts?

Cation content (how hard your water is). PM your address, or pop in a Cereals (if you are going) and I can give you some.

Thank you. Interesting to know the science behind it rather than just being X-change strips.

Post #127 above shows my tests...must've been a long day.

Haha, yes, sorry

So you are "semi-hard" and would benefit from some intervention

Usually put 0.25% X-Change in with Atlantis/Axial but will add to other products too from now on. Did a load of Ally today and added some in that where before yesterday I wouldn't have thought to.

If my hazy memory of the Academy run a couple of years ago that I went to with @Rob Holmes and @BenB works, X Change will help the following;

Glyphosate
Pyrethroids
Sulphonyl urea herbicides
Dim type ACCase herbicides e.g. Laser, Centurion Max
Phenmedipham (beet)
Organophosphate insecticides (not that these are allowed any more)

As Ive said before the whole adjuvant thing is a bit confusing. Stick with known products as far as you can; desangosse make some cracking products and ive always got on well with them. Plus their can sizes are ideal.

Does torpedo II sort water hardness when using SU chemistry and which product do I use with phenoxy or pryidine products on grassland; Ive always used solar plus but its only a 1L can.

Agreed.

Just a pity about the foil seals....and those locking tabs on x-change cans.
