2012: How Tillage and Application Timing of Reflex Affects Palmer Amaranth Control
Tillage is now a common scene
Growers: Pre-plant/PRE herbicides applied
Percent control of Palmer amaranth by Reflex as impacted by tillage. 38 DAP
Prowl (1 pt) + Reflex (1 pt)
Tillage in Cotton During 2010
Percent Palmer Amaranth control with Reflex PPI and PRE in 2010.
Reflex: Soil moist at planting; rainfall 13 DAT.
Cotton injury is a big concern for growers!!

Objective To determine if PRE, PPI or PRE and PPI split applications (PPI fb PRE) of Reflex has an impact on Palmer amaranth control.
Materials and Methods Tift County Plot Size 6 by 25 feet Replicated 4 times Randomized Complete Block Design DP 1050 BRF 10 Treatments
Application Methods PPI with a field cultivator before planting PRE immediately after planting Irrigated (no irrigation or rainfall for 7 DAT)
Herbicide Treatments: Comparison 1 PPI Options: Prowl + Reflex 1 pt/A Prowl + Reflex 1.5 pt/A PRE Options: Prowl + Reflex 1 pt/A Prowl + Relfex 1.5 pt/A Split (PPI fb PRE) Prowl + Reflex 0.5 pt/A fb Reflex 0.5 pt/A Prowl + Reflex 0.75 pt/A fb Reflex 0.75 pt/A

Conclusions In irrigated production, PRE applications are more effective if injury is not a concern. In dryland production, the split applications give you the best of both worlds.
