Subject: RE: Wheat after Milo


Not knowing where you are in KS, the timing of atrazine application, how much rain has fallen since the atrazine was applied and your soil type/soil pH, its really hard to offer an opinion.

However, if it was my field........ I would clear a small area (say 10' x 10') within the field (away from end rows and any potential overlap areas) and hand-plant wheat. I don't know what moisture you have, so you may have to hand-water it. Look at the wheat in 30-40 days. As warm as it is now, you should have enough growth to see any potential leaf/root injury symptoms.

It may sound like a lot of trouble, but if you are thinking about planting lots of acres into milo applied with 2lb atrazine, its cheaper to experiment with a 10x10' square than with whole fields :)
