It depends how wet the leaf is. If there is enough water on the leaf, that the spray creates enough liquid to cause run off, the it's a problem, but if not then it will actually improve the coverage of the glyphosate on the leaf. I was sprayed a contact herbicide on some rape which then got a light shower of rain (not enough to cause run off). It obviously improved chemical coverage, as the bit I sprayed the the day before had much worse control.
If the chemical dries on the leaf, then it gives more time for the chemical to be absorbed. This is also why it works better when the plants are actively growing, they will absorb the chemical and translocate it around the plant quicker. If temps are going below freezing and you think that the chemical won't dry on the leaf, then I would leave it.
This.
It will take longer to translocate around the plant at this time of year, so any perennial weeds should be left for at least a week before any cultivations.
You'll be fine with that. Just put more than 2 litres on with water conditioner to make sure.
Depends what you need to kill.Was going with 4L Azural,0.3 X-change,0.1 activator 90. Overkill??
Crack on, you will kill anything with this. Don't go too early in the morning but as it dries on you should be fine. I have messed up slightly in the past by going too late in the day as the plant gets wetter again.Was going with 4L Azural,0.3 X-change,0.1 activator 90. Overkill??
X-change first in the tank, fill the sprayer up as far as you dare, add the x-change. 0.25 is the label rate. Best of luck [emoji106]Was going with 4L Azural,0.3 X-change,0.1 activator 90. Overkill??

Stick with 4 l then, nettles don't die very well with glyphosate.Meadow grass,chickweed,vol wheat a bit of black grass,nettles and cleavers.
100 be fine, amistar slightly courser, depends how much one leaf BG there is really. I normally use guardian air 03's for my Glypho, might push it to 125l/ha if I want better coverage.Amistar or defy nozzles at 150 L/Ha?
