Georgia | Looking for advice on wheat chemical. I have a 25 acre field planted mid November. Wheat is really starting to grow after UAN application 2 weeks ago. Yes I know, I’m way late for wheat herbicide app here in an east central GA. I sprayed glyphosate behind the drill and was pretty weed free until recently noticed some ryegrass and wild radish in spots. It’s really not that bad and not what I’d call an infestation but I’d really like to keep it out of the sample and try to reduce the seed bank if possible. It’s likely already hurt yield for this year. Ryegrass has 1-2 tillers and wild radish maybe 3-4 inches tall. Wheat is 8 inches tall. My options are axial bold with a separate application of MCPA or Osprey herbicide. Could always mix harmony with the axial but idk if that’s strong enough to kill the radish. Does anyone have any experience with these 2 chemicals on larger rye grass control? The Osprey kills some broadleaves as well. The price for axial and Osprey are identical. I’d rather just make 1 trip with the Osprey but I’ve used powerflex (same herbicide group) in the past and been very disappointed. I’ve heard axial is better on ryegrass. Next year I will be using zidua pre.
