Winter bean herbicide

[ricdog]

Am I out of touch? Thought you could use kerb pre em?

You can,but nobody has any for sale.

That’s what’s going on. There’s not much bg and should be clean by the spring. I did a bit more research and the nitrogen fixing happens much later in warmer weather.

What other post emergence herbicides are there for broad leafed weeds in beans other than bentazone???

PGRO, they say none, so it is down to a thumping good dose of glyphosate after the preceding crop and a robust and expensive stack of residuals.

Organic growers whack in the hoe at 2nd and 5th node stages - I would be interested to know how successful that is.

Don't let volunteer beans get big in a cereal crop. I'd sooner have them out in the autumn than have to deal with them in the spring where they can shade grassweeds. Used to put a dab of something in with the old BYDV spray, if you could get on the land to put it on of course.

If there is no grassweed issue, then you can leave them until the spring where they are just as easily removed.

Three weeks

Which product and was an adjuvant used?

 

[MrNoo]

Was a pre em used?

No, not drilled yes as had a lot of BG in it, destined for Spring Wheat or may bang some WW in depending on weather Nov time

 

[MrNoo]

Which product and was an adjuvant used?

Flex plus rainwater, same as I did all ex bean ground destined for WW, will add volunteer beans look fine in the WW too despite pre emm too!!
Plenty of nodules on the roots too so will leave them for a while

I had some that looked like they were growing though the glyphosate first hard frost wiped them out.

Early days yet I suggest Mr Noo. Keep us informed. I await the report next March 30th with interest as that will be the key report. Cheers.

Hope it should be into wheat by then, fingers crossed, although looking at the number i knocked out with the header when combining and the plants already established, it is tempting to leave and see what becomes of it!!

Yes, I sprayed vol beans and manner of other stuff with 2 lts plus adj ahead of drilling wheat. All other stuff died away, wheat emerged, beans still there. Hmm I’m thinking, regarding beans... another couple of weeks passed, beans gone - well, of course now some new ones coming
