Quinclorac 75 DF Is this the correct one? $47 on Amazon for 1 Lb is there a better deal out there?
I want to be legal.Check the label on drive to see if active ingredient is quinclorac.
^^^Above - you aren’t going to see switch for a while!!! 2.2 qts is labeled max u can apply. If you could do more- it would be great, like 3-4 qts to acre. But legal is 2.2.
Jake Ehlinger here in Michigan has done some experimenting with using both to get screening faster than normal. I went lighter on the Egyptian Wheat and 9 pounds an acre on the switch. He has had good success with it.Won't the wheat shade out the new switch?
I've had switch popping up for a couple of weeks now from seed I drilled April 16th, but its spotty. I know it is new seeding because I can see the rows (20 Minutes south of Iowa City).

Wait until switch has several leaves minimum. Taller the better to handle 2,4-d (I just like being conservative & careful). Good to go on quinclorac & methylated seed oil.On a 2nd year Cave & Rock planting with no growth seen last year, I am seeing some this year. Is it O.K to use 24D or Quinclorac now? Or just mow it and wait another month to use either of these chemicals? .
I think the rate on quinclorac is 1 lbs. check out label. Label will have all this….What is the ration of Quinclorac 75 DF to Methylated seed oil per acre?
Be interesting to see how that turns out, thanks for sharing. Have you found most seed will germinate without the cold stratification?Process on this one. New farm for a client. HEAVY thatch: Sprayed at green up, waited 2 weeks, burned to remove thatch. Sprayed again mid June and drilled same day. So, this will be dead dead shortly. Hopefully we get some rain.

Dunno, this is my first go at it. I have always frost seeded. Many others have successfully used this method tho. I will report my findings. Going to need some rain tho!Be interesting to see how that turns out, thanks for sharing. Have you found most seed will germinate without the cold stratification?
