Subject: Re: Millipedes or centipedes question


i had to replant parts of 2 fields of no-till soybeans this year mostly due to millipedes--- things went right down the row eating the beans

due to cool conditions after planting , some of the beans took about 4 weeks to emerge, they continued feeding and clipping beans through the
cotyleden stage

some spots were down to about 40K population after drilling 160K treated seeds (they are not an insect?--so no labeled insecticide)

seed company agronimist had me disc up the worst areas to get rid of some residue they hide under and to speed emergence of the beans on the replant


edit--- so definately watch those fields closely next spring at planting time
