Anyone use one as part of thier Blackgrass and Ryegrass control ? Next question do they build 30 metre ones ? I have seen the bolt on one's for sprayer booms . Do you think it would be possible to build one out of an old mounted sprayer ? Thanks

I use one for blackgrass. Just bought the mats and electrics of edlingtons at Gainsborough and we zip tie the mats on. Can put mats on or off in 15mins. Only went for 16m ( have a 32m sprayer). It’s enough just looking at one side

So you go in-between your tramlines with it ?

yeah suffolksucklers is right, I don't add anymore wheelings. go across the field with it on right side boom. then go back across going up the tramline the other way.
This yr I am going to try and be organised better and try and hit the blackgrass twice and alternate the direction I travel from first to second application.
