Only 2nd year on liquid fert , so still learning what you can do / get away with. Never got chance to apply N1 to beet after drilling and now crop is just starting to emerge. Will a application of Omex 24/7.5@165lts scorch the emerging plants off ?. If so what’s the soonest I can apply without crop damage. Ideally in a light rain would be ideal.!!

Pray for rain.

Apply all your crop needs before drilling in future,this is what I was told for beet.
Only found that out when I went liquid.

Knowing my luck when I was liquid it would scorch the hell out of the crop,.........

and probably kill it.
Sorry.

We now apply the full amount pre emergence (even better would be pre drilling as above). We used to split and apply the second dose at about 4 true leaves but small plants that a scorched take time to recover and its not a long growing window anyway.
