(photo by Wilma Oke) Deciding �n herbicide depends on field conditions Peas, cereals, sweet corn, beets and other early harvested Ontario crops give producers the opportunity to control .' perennial weeds both chemically acid mechanically after harvest, according to a research 'cientist, at the Ridgetorwn College of Agricultural Technology. "'Perennial weeds have underground parts such as stems and rhizomes ".with dormant growing buds that perpetuate the species even though control methods have been used both before planting and during the growth of the crop,'osays R.H: Brown, chief biology specialist at the college. "To obtain the maximum control of perennial weeds, the application of -herbicides must be carried out when the weeds are most susceptible either just before or at flowering of most perennial weeds." . By applying chemicals at this stage, he 'says, herbicides are moved most effectively to the underground parts of the plant, since manufactured food is being transferred from ' the leaves to underground storage organs and acts as a carrier for the herbicide used., In' cereal crops; growers may have some difficulty in timing their— herbicide applications. • • "The major problem with weed control after harvesting cereals, is deciding when to spray," he says. "A farmer ha to consider if the stubble,, with or without straw cover, will prevent adequate herbicide coverage of the weeds to be sprayed; or should he wait until the weeds grow up through the straw and - or stubble; or should the field be plowed or disked, allowing, the weeds to grow before spraying." The specialist points out that with the fatter' possibility; regrowth sometimes doesn't occur, particularly if the season becomes dry, and. • particularly in clay soils. If sufficient coverage by the herbicide ' is possible, ' Mr. Brown recommends spraying the weeds -.,that are. present, which are usually well developed. Since a waxy layer on the surface of the leaves is quite difficult to penetrate with a water -herbicide mixture,wit is advisable to add an oil (1' gal - Az), an. oil concentrate (1 qt -A) ora surfactant (1 pt -A'). • Mr:" Brown indicates that an early harvested crop may allow a grower to spray perennial weeds several, times during the growing_ season. He suggests several points to 'help growers control perennial weeds. The weeds and crop refuse should be plowed or disked about two weeks after ap- plication of the chemical. If regrowth •occurs, . repeated applications of an .herbicide will assist in reducing the perennial -weeds by depleting their food supplies, and, preventing them from bu:lding up food reserves .and new plants via seeds, nutlets, un- derground rhizomes and roots. �r • ��i�C �► , �G l;► (�;; ��v� ._-_ Vii, i�� THE SEPARATE MAIN -CORNER • �»O..,.,.....�i';i( n SHOPPE (NEXT -ATO CAMPBELL'S MEN'S WEAR) PANTSUITS OPEN 1-6 AND ' CLINTON BLOUSES.
