Anyone ever use Drive XLR8 on switch to control foxtail? I can't find anywhere on the label that mentions switchgrass but it's mode of action is quinclorac.
We ran an acre off this weekend just for a trial run on drive type 1 set on around 80 and I ran out of seed around 8/10ths of an acre. I had 56#s of rye 50#s of oats and 50#s of peas in large seed box. I need to back the setting off to around 65 to 70 on the next try. I have 4 drive types on...
GP Drill settings
I know we talked about this some last year but what did everyone find out was the best setting to plant the Dbltree rye mix with there GP drills? If we are putting on 100+ pounds to the acre should we be setting drills to plant 100+ pounds of rye to the acre? I think I ran...
3 acres in the ground
We got 3 acres of Dbltree's cereal grain mix in the ground yesterday evening. Here is dad hard at work. The drill worked perfect for this mix. I even went in and no-tilled some areas where my clover died from the drought this summer. Not sure if it will work in those...
Thanks for all your help
Thanks for all the help. I am hoping to start planting the rye mix this afternoon with my great plains drill. My drill is a 705NT so I am guessing the settings would probably be the same. Looking at my seed chart it shows drive type 2 set on 80 will run my rye rate...
Settings on GP planter
Paul,
What is your game plan for your settings on your GP drill? I have a GP no till drill with both seed boxes. What seeds are you putting in which box and how many pounds per acre are you planning on running the larger seed at since its going to be mixed? Thanks for...

Egyptian Wheat replant
Does anyone know how long Egyptian wheat will lay in the ground before it will come up? I planted my Egyptian wheat 3 weeks ago and some parts came up where there was good moisture but we have been extremely dry for the last month and a lot of it hasn't sprouted yet. Was...
great plains
I have a great plains drill. Its 7 foot with 7.5" spacing. Has anyone planted Egyptian wheat with a drill like this? I have the small seed box on the planter also. I plan on tilling first cultipacking and drilling last. Any ideas on what drive type I should run at and what the seed...
Brassicas question
First off I want to thank you Ddltree for all that you do to help educate us. I have been planting your brassicas mix for 3 years now and the deer in my area will not touch it. Do you think I should continue to plant it and they will eventually get accustom to it? They hammer...
I have my cereal grain mix planted again this year and it works great!! Just wanted to know what everyone is finding there average price per acre to plant this mix. I have around $130 an acre in seed from my local seed supplier. Does that seem high? Oh and if anybody is selling rain I would...
Frost seed clover into standing soybeans
I have about 6 acres of standing soybeans that are stripped down to nothing and the ground is bare below the bean stalks. Can I frost seed a mixture of alice, kopu II and jumbo ladino into a portion of these beans to establish my clover plots or would I...
