Is anyone going to follow luximo plus with flufenacet or crystal note not over doing the pendamethalin

 

[Bigjon44]

Shouldn't be any need!

Probably yes...at least a trial area

 

[snarling bee]

Yes

I will follow up with more flufenacet.
However not using Luximo, it’s £15/ha too expensive (unless you are targeting ryegrass). Can get more control cheaper stacking other herbicides.

hating these twin pack of various herbicides. Luximo + expensive pdm, proclus + expensive liberator. We do seem to get shafted quite regularly.

I'm only using Luximo on about 20% of WW acreage. As you say - very expensive, and PDM in a small can FFS.

I hate co-packs too and generally avoid them
However in this case I believe it’s genuine in that this was the first product to go through registration post Brexit and they ran out of time to register a co-formulation, which should follow next year ??

Im trying a couple of fields to compare as it worked well in trials here 3 years ago and as much as Avadex plays a strong part in the stack, it’s a horrible product to use for the operator and needs specialist kit to spread it adding to the cost

Agree avadex is very annoying, we are being more targeted with its use this year.
I genuinely think follow up flufenacet is one of the best value for money herbicide choices around.

Post em Ffct has been a pretty standard treatment here for six years, weather allowing!!

How much extra is luximo ?

How much extra is luximo ?

£70ha is the cost. “Too expensive considering your seedbeds” was Cassandra’s verdict. I never argue with my agronomist. Some of her more progressive clients will be trying it in combination with ffct I am sure.

The co-product packs are obviously a marketing ploy. Yes, you can have some monster active of ours but you will also be buying some of our own brand PDM as well.

 

[Mr Tree]

Used luximo plus and pdm peri em across all wheat acreage here this season.

Bone dry seedbeds made this decision for me right or wrong!

Time will tell

Opened my box of that Luximo stuff Half a can of luximo and 2 cans of stomp, feel really ripped OFF

If it works you won’t care how much the fancy stomps cost!!

If it doesn’t work……..

Then we are ripped off !

A bit premature until you see the results ??

Any drug dealer will tell you packaging matters. The effectiveness of the drug is assessed by the addict therefore first impressions count.

Did a comparison with luximo against crystal + hurricane. So far crystal looking as good as, if not better.
