![]() ![]() Wheat tolerance of 2,4-D is highest between Feeke’s stages 3 and 6 and is lowest in Feeke’s Stages 9 and 10. Below is a wheat growth stage graphic from the Agronomy Guide (page 346).Įach spring there are questions about the risks associated with 2,4-D or MCPA application to wheat past Feeke’s Stage 6. Buctril, Huskie, Stinger and Starane can be applied to wheat up to boot stage (before Feeke’s Stage 9). Harmony Extra and Harmony SG (and the similar products listed above) can be applied to wheat until the flag leaf is visible (before Feeke’s Stage 8). In this situation, the remaining herbicide options for broadleaf weed control are Harmony Extra (similar products: Edition, Treaty Extra, Nimble, others), Harmony SG (similar products: Treaty, Harass, Volta), Buctril, Stinger and Starane. Once wheat has passed Feeke’s Stage 6 (i.e., when the first node of stem is visible), the risk of herbicide injury from 2,4-D, MCPA, Banvel/Clarity, or Curtail increases and application of these herbicides is not recommended. Herbicide selection for broadleaf weeds in winter wheat past Feeke’s Stage 6 Some of these products can work in the spring, but to be effective, the weeds must be small. The wheat herbicides available for control of grasses, Axial, Finesse Grass and Broadleaf, Maverick, Osprey, and PowerFlex are most effective when applied in the fall. Weedy grasses, such as downy brome, cheat, annual bluegrass, annual ryegrass, and roughstalk bluegrass are also becoming more of a problem in Pennsylvania. These weeds would be more effectively controlled with a later spring application. Applications this early are not likely to effectively control dandelions or Canada thistle. Remember that cool (less than 50 F) cloudy days can reduce herbicide activity. Herbicides applied in early spring can be slow under the typically cool conditions in March and early April. Refer to the Agronomy Guide table for additional details. Consider using 2,4-D and Clarity if horseweed/marestail is a problem in small grains. ![]() Harmony SG or Harmony Extra should be included where control of chickweed is desired, since these are the only herbicides that control this weed, but if it is ALS-resistant then you will need to include Glory or Starane. Clarity, Banvel, 2,4-D, or MCPA can improve the control of some winter annuals and perennials and Stinger is the most effective small grain herbicide for thistles. ![]() Harmony SG contains only one of the active ingredients (thifensulfuron) in Harmony Extra and thus does not have the same weed control spectrum. However! If you're on the taller side and don't wanna struggle while getting on and off your couch, then be sure to check out the height and make sure the sofa you go with isn't *too* close to the ground.Harmony Extra is still probably the most broad spectrum herbicide for broadleaf control. Determine your desired heightĮxtra-deep sofas tend to be pretty low to the ground to give 'em that extra-comfy, bed-like feel. Want a neutral-toned couch that’ll last you forever and work with a variety of color palettes? Or maybe you’re looking for a jewel-toned pop of color to anchor your living room? Whether you want something luxurious, extra-durable, or even washable, we've got options for ya, so just think about your decor (and any fur-babies/actual babies that may wreak havoc on your new piece). Be sure to measure your living area (as well as your doorways, hallways, elevator, and any other space this couch will have to pass through on its journey to your living room) because nothing's worse than ordering a piece of furniture that's just too damn big for your apartment. Here's the thing about extra-deep sofas: They tend to be, ya know, extra-big. Here are a few things to consider before buying that extra-deep-seat sofa of your dreams: Measure your space A couch or sofa is an investment that should last you for years (if not a lifetime!), and while you can always spruce it up with a slipcover, the couch itself should be q-u-a-l-i-t-y. ![]()
