Pacifica Plus carries the same warning. Crop effects have been so severe that you need a damn big problem to justify applying it. Then the pluses might outweigh the minuses.

Would it be true @Fromebridge that crop effects tend to be less the earlier its applied? Anecdotally I would say so.
Also is it warm enough yet, I assume so? i must read my monolith cans to see what that says.

True, crop is more sensitive if growing so later in spring more risky than earlier. Should be warm enough now but again that means crop is 'softer'.

So at a 1l/h, will that knock the crop hard at this time of year? AMG is the issue.
What other options do I have? The issue is mild-ish at worst in one piece. Other fields I was debating just doing headlands.

Wanted to roll the fields as well but 2 week interval either side

If its wheat Othello will do AMG. Be aware that frosts are forecast this weekend depending on your location, so the crop will be fragile.

How big is the AMG? Othello won't do anything in stem extension. I'd live with low levels of AMG, test soil pH, macronutrients and fix structure problems as it's a symptom of a thin crop for whatever reason. I used to have it on the ploughing ins & outs where burial wasn't quite so good. I spray all stubbles off now.

AMG not big expect the odd patches that missed the plough furrow. Alot just a couple of leaves.
Crop looks good, ph good and HIGH levels of p and k at last test.
Creeping in from margins and plough in/outs is why I was favouring headlands, it's just where do you stop?

Now got two weeks to think about it as the roller is now whoooing up and down. Wont spray it til next week anyway and have beans hopefully going in the anyway
