Listen Later

End of May 2024 and seeing some interesting things with all the rains -- also getting into post herbicide spraying in corn, so including some THINGS TO REMEMBER - One of them mentioned was WALES/DALES_-- here is that how to: Fill tank 1/2 full with water and begin agitation:
W= Wettable powders + Dry Flowables ( Wales or Dales-- D for DRY first)
then add any WDG = water Disperable granules ie again DRY
Then add your AMS or non AMS water conditioner.
A is for AGITATE
L is for LIQUIDS or Water Dispersible Products ie your SC, CS, F, ME L or SL formulations
E is for Emulsificable Concentrates--EC forms which are usually your oil based per se' such as your Outlooks, Armezon PROs etc.
S is for SURFACTANTS ie Adjuvants (NIS, COC, MSO and others)
add remaining water and agitate--- DALES or WALES... now you know the SCRIPT for loading a chemical spray tank! Also Soft water makes a HUGE difference vs HARD water --for contact herbicides. Fun Fact.
