Subject: gramoxone drift and soybeans


this is the second year now we have used gramoxone as burn down after cutting wheat. we have noticed some speckling of the corn leaves from the drift sometimes a couple hundred feet down wind, but is mostly just cosmetic damage. had a field of newly emerged soybeans down wind of where we were spraying wheat stubble that sits in between 2 fields of corn. both fields of corn showed some signs of drift but not a hint of it on the beans. is it because they werent event to their first true leaves or is it because they just arent as susceptible? last year had a neighbor spray 48oz gramoxone on some prevent plant corn ground to kill the twh and volunteer soybeans that were out there. smoked the waterhemp but the beans were about a foot tall and didnt die. they looked burned for about 6 weeks but slowly greened up and kept growing. I dont really want to do a low rate trial to test my theory, but has anyone else noticed this or is it just a chance thing with the right conditions "here"?
