Left a check strip of unsprayed wheat stubble in 2025, then this spring used integrity, 0.8 credit and uan (no water carrier). Was worried the uan would compromise the glyphosate, may 27th was worried some got by, but today itβs all dead.

Nice example of what hairpinning looks like. Soys no-till drilled into corn. Plenty of moisture. They are a bit behind compared to soys planted into a clean furrow. Cut away the trench to take the photo.

Field Find of the day: An albino mutant! Itβs believed #Corn has hundreds of genes that if mutated can disrupt the biosynthesis pathways for Chlorophyll. Not as rare as you think but you have to be looking at this stage as they survive only till their seed reserves run out.

DANG!! Found my first stripe rust for 2026. A real βhot spotβ where a tree slowed down wind and increased humidity. Get out the sprayer!! π€¦πΌ

The current strip rust map tells us it is here and developing. Conditions are optimum for infection the next few days in many areas in Ontario. Listen to @WheatPete for details!
