Hereās a handy reference sheet with reminders for staging T3 fungicide timing on winter wheat. ProsaroPro protects against fusarium head blight and leaf diseases including stripe rust. @Bayer4CropsCA
Corn is starting to pop quickly now. Corn planted on Friday is just about to spike thru in 5 days. Be mindful of pre emergent herbicides. If youāre considering our NEW Convintro Corn12 product, make sure there is no corn starting to spike. @Bayer4CropsCA
Itās that time of year when I get a few questions about Liberty herbicide tolerance in our @DEKALB_Canada corn hybrids. If you planted an Orange bag (SmartStax) or a Yellow bag (SmartStaxPro) you are safe with Liberty.
Last night at 10:30 pm temperature at 2ā planting depth was 11.7 C. This morning at 6:30 there was a white frost, air temp was zero, planting depth temperature was 7.4 C.

Lots of discussion about planting corn into cool soils. I learned another example today, of how air temps will change quickly but soil temps stay steady. North Lambton County near the Lake @ 2pm-air temp 46.3F (8C). Soil temp at 2ā planting depth 55.6F (13C) @dekalbcanada

Doesnāt matter how many times I get ready for spring planting, itās still exciting to get my first corn plot of the season in the ground. Found some sand west of Glencoe. Temperature at planting depth was 12 C (55 F). šØš. @DEKALB_Canada
Undisturbed clay soil is 10 degrees (50 F) at noon. If the soil is fit, I say šØš. Even if itās fit and 7-8 degrees earlier in the morning itās fine to get started. We are heading towards slightly warmer temps and the soil wonāt cool down much over night @bayer4cropsCA
