T0 anyone?

[moretimeforgolf]

All of our wheat was drilled at the end of October and 99% will see the combine. I’m due to spray pgr, manganese and Broadway Star this week and don’t see the point in adding a fungicide. Varieties - skyfall, firefly and extase. No ctl to use up and it’s set to stay dry . Just wondering what others were planning.

Not quite windy enough yet is it?

Brief chat to agronomist - over the phone - on Thursday. No plans for t0 at moment. End October drilled. Do have plenty of CTL tho ?

My agronomist has seen yellow rust in several varieties locally. None here.

I have Timpani to use up (CTL + teb). Done the T0 on some forward leggy Siskin sown early October. GS31 with leaf 4 3/4 emerged so I took advantage of some lack of wind last week to knock a couple of fields off. 0.1 Moddus, 1 CCC and 2 litres of manganese in the tank too.

The rest will come ready this coming week except the Gleam which was sown late October and has just been rolled.

no need here, not even on the “early” October late drilled wheat

might get it’s first herbicide soon

This is the year to make savings where we can, yields will be nothing special

I'm planning to go through mine in the next week or so with trace elements and maybe some pgr on a couple of very leggy bits.

It's all jb Diego and I have found some but not much yellow rust so I'm inclined to chuck 0.3 Toledo in the tank on the stuff which was drilled in october and early november.

Wouldn’t the BroadwayStar be a reasonable PGR on its own?!!
I got caught out with Skyfall and yellow rust coming in just short of T1 after not doing a T0 last year. To be honest this year I’m going to put a T0 on everything just in case I get a dose of CV19 just before T1 so I’ve got some cover. I don’t normally recon to put a T0 on.

I Have some yellow rust in my skyscraper, so I’m doing a T0 along with some magphosk

Yes, I wouldn't tank mix pgr with broadway star because I'd be afraid of "hotting" the mix up too much. Anything that gets a Broadway/Atlantis type product here dosnt get a pgr.

 

[Clive]

you don’t need pgr if you use Broadway star imo

do t tank mix it with anything !

If it doesn't rain soon, the programme will have to be VERY cheap.

this truly is the farming year from hell isnt it !

Only non ionic wetter and if you’ve got hard water, a decent cation complexer water conditioner like X Change

So far... the only forecast rain here is 1.1mm tonight.

 

[robbie]

Could be a chance of some rain over Easter weekend.

Yellow rust in end October drilled KWS Kerrin (3 miles from east coast so high risk area) will get 0.5 Teb + 1.0 CTL

Thanks for the feedback.
I’ve used a litre of CCC with Broadway Star in previous years without obvious detriment. Anyhow, I’ve decided to drop the pgr because it sounds like a waste of money. The only fungicide I’m considering is a splash of epx on the firefly for yellow rust.

Didnt want to but the Spotlight pretty bad with YR I felt I couldnt leave it unchecked.

There’s a crop local to me I spotted over the weekend that has pretty bad yellow rust - it is almost looking like it’s had glyphosate.

Likely do a T0 CTL with some PGR/manganese I expect in a week or so. There’s surprising moisture underneath....but I think crop roots are too poor to be accessing much at the moment. Crops are looking rather pale and lacking nutrition but would green up quickly with some rain. Hopefully the spot last Sunday night will have helped.
