Going with a very similar mix. Glad the forecast is showing we may get in the field this week. We are 30 days behind!!!!

1.0 oz Sharpen + 2.8 oz Envive + 32 oz 4lb glyphosate + 2.5 pints pendimethalin + 1% AMS + 1% MSO
This is on about 140 acres where marestail is a problem because we could not get burndown application out due to wet spring and wheat all around so never could get winds we needed when we had it dry. Never had this marestail problem before. ALways have got burndown out early in the past. On all our other acres we are going with same mix minus the Envive OR just going with glyphosate + pendimethalin + AMS.

Yea its been one of the most challenging burndown years ever. Been so wet we have done it twice in places. Marestail is a big problem over here, mostly cause most people dont burn down soon enough to control it when its small. Better get it before the beans get put into the ground because after that your options for killing it are very limited. That 1 oz of sharpen should get it by itself but the envive will prolly heat the stew out of it. Good luck planting, we have got a lot done this week so far over here in the hills.
