It won't hurt to add a pound of turnips but at this point it's to late to get much growth unless we have a late fall. Keep us posted if you do.

I'm not sure what to think Skip, we nearly 5" too on waterlogged soils. I don't have a warm and fuzzy feeling about the situation but all we can do is wait and see. We need sunny weather but cool temperature's and more rain forecast for Friday. Keep us posted

Just under 5" here, that is going to push nitrogen deeper and suffucate plant's in already waterlogged soils, we need some serious sunshine!

Neither one will get more then an inch this fall, there's not a hill of beans difference this fall. Just mix them and sow, you see why we don't waste money on "buck on bag" seed, you never know what you're getting... ;)

September 2014 Brassica growth as of September 1st, and they look great! At 10# per the brassicas are plenty thick but in our area deer thin them quickly. They devour the forage radish first and the turnips and rape later in the winter. They tend to focus on the rye, oats and peas...

I urea they look pretty yellow, have they had to much water? Clethodim won't hurt broadleaves unless you had something else in your sprayer? Velvetleaf is everywhere yet we have never had a problem with it or any other broadleaf weeds for that matter, not sure what we are doing different?

Clethodim won't harm them, crop oil might burn them temporarily. Pictures would be helpful

It sound's like they are doing great! You can topdress urea if wish but may not be necessary, talking rain tonight so it's a great time to get some on.

Oust XP comes with a measuring cup, but I am not sure about the generic versions? We use SFM75 from Keystone Pest Solutions

Per acre always

Oust will not harm established switchgrass as long as it is dormant. Usually late October or early November or you can spray early April but wet weather can be a problem in spring. Purchase generic Oust as SFM75 from Keystone Pest Solution, link on first page of this thread. It will kill...

With soils plenty moist and temperature's 85-90 degrees it does not take long for seed to germinate. Jess mowed earlier then sprayed glyphosate and notill drilled the rye mix Everything is coming up great including the forage radish and red clover. His goal is to provide all the...

I would leave as is and spray late fall with 2 ounces Oust

If you get a heavy rain you'll be fine as is

That's to early to plant the rye mix and that is why you need white clover around the perimeter Make sure you fertilize heavily to increase yield ;)

August 31, 2014 Jess notill drilled oats and annual clover following brassicas this past spring and this is what it looked like a couple weeks before planting the rye mix White flowers are berseem red is crimson Annual clovers have the potential to fix in excess of 100# nitrogen per...

August 30, 2014 The past 2 years we had record drought but this year above normal rainfall making it a challenge to get things planted Those that we got planted are doing great Deer will thin these soon Some farms we'll have to go with the rye mix only but we're hoping these don't...

The reason I ask is because once you use the rotation a few years and build organic matter,to much or to little water will become less of a problem

Gly and Oust now, if any regrowth spray gly only late October There dozens of new varieties, ask about longevity and winter standability in your area ;)

To much rain can cause problems some we have no control over but try top dressing urea just before the next rain. Make sure you soil test after season Are you using the crop rotation?
