Herbicide damaged wheat, best way to perk it up

Sunshine, warm weather, some manganese and/or a bit of Yara goodness in a can- gramitrel or Mag PhosK, etc.

Manganese is used commercially in some countries to help herbicide tolerant crops recover from their use.

I always said with these ill looking crops that I didn't think it ever pays to leave them for too long. If they are going to right themselves they normally do so quite quickly, nothing worse than a crop sat looking at you poorly.

I think there are some poor looking crops all round, just been too cold and too wet and with all the septoria about things are gonna look yellowish. Robust T1 going on today with some seaweed , try and perk it up!!!

Had some really sick wheat once, on the red brash, just looked like it hadn't grabbed any N; refused to kick on at all, so I gave it 5 litres/ha of manganese chelate and the transformation was incredible. It was in the days of Cougar, I think.
Point is, I wasn't expecting to see it on this land, the sandy away ground definitely, but not here.
