Fertiliser or Fungicide?

[Chae1]

Looks like a window opening up end of week, weekend to get sprayer out.

OSR beginning to flower, have Fungicide,PGR, boron to go on. Have had spray recs for about a month and never got it on. It's had 110kg/N already but normally like to get last application on as flowering starts.

Winter barley had 90kg/N third week of February. Hasn't had any Fungicide, trace elements, PGR.

Liquid N so have to leave 7 days between applications.

Forecast 17 degrees Thursday, Friday.

What would others do first? Could possibly use amidas on w.barley, but had hoped to use it for grass.

NPKSMgTrace - you gotta have something to protect and something that won't be knocked back by sprays

If the issue is wind, ignore the scorch and get the fertiliser on. Growth will be rapid now & you don't want to hold a crop back now.
