About 8-10 years ago I put down 10 oz of one of the Authority products. Probably Supreme. That was the top end of the labeled rate for my soil type. I put it on within a day or two of planting and then it proceeded to get cold and wet. To top it off the beans were treated Illevo. I ended up with severe PPO injury on the beans and a reduced stand by about 40%. I filed a claim with FMC and ended up with half my money back on the Authority. That was the last time I sprayed a PPO after planting.....until this year......and its been cool and wet. |
