Liberator on emerging spring barley

[dannewhouse]

We have some barley just emerging and I wanted to pre em it but didn't get to it for many reasons.

Will it do a lot of damage
0.3l/ha
Thanks

I'd do it, if I were concerned about grass weeds.
Have done plenty of w.barley peri-em at 0.6.
But I'm not an agronomist.

the label says up to gs 23, 24, 14 for wheat and winter barley. But pre em for spring barley

 

[David.]

I'm not going to tell you to do it
You should obviously abide by label recommendation.

It might check the leaves but they should grow away from it

I had farm apply Liberator 0.3 + Avadex factor in early March to one leaf spring barley. Looks OK today. But that was then and now is now. Might get a bit of discolouration of the first leaves. But again do not pursue me later as I will deny all knowledge!!

Don’t think it will do much with it being so dry and will just give the crop stress when it really isn’t needed making it less competitive?

Nice damp seedbed from last night's rain near perfect for pre em?
Would have stuck to tyres slightly 10am
It's on now anyway.
15 acre field 6 acre drilled Thursday odd patches poking green up (wetter spots ) rest drilled Saturday perfect just white shoots out of seeds 1" down.

Black and meadow grass field

I’ve got 2l of crystal to do on mine peri em but not sure if it’s to dry for it or not?
