Subject: Late,Wet, No Burn Down On No-Till Liberty Beans ??


NW IA
I know this has been discussed before and if some one would be good enough to point me to the authoritative thread on the subject I would be grateful.

I will be planting Liberty beans and have never used a burn down yet. However, due to the wet conditions hare in NWIA, I now have 2 inch tall lambs quarters and a few other scattered weeds and it will be a while before it is dry enough to plant.

Actually had a no-till advocate tell me to wait for it to be dry enough to kill the weeds with iron, plant then Authority First pre-emerge as I always have done. He said some of this ground will not dry without tillage. My concern is that I'll tear it up, plant and the rain will stop.

I do not want my pre on prior to planting. I am concerned about moving it out of the row and giving weeds an opportunity.

Can I use Roundup or Liberty and plant beans a day or two later without injury? What would be safe to mix with the Liberty to help with lambs quarter or other difficult weeds in a short window burn down?

Another complicating factor. I have fairly heavy cover of bedded pack manure on most of this ground and it is corn stubble.

Thanks for any advice or for pointing me in the right direction.
