Needed to spray a 500 ft long  brush/ weed row along a ditch.. Weather said rain sunday night, so i did not do it.. Never rained... Looked at 7 am today and they said no rain for 36 hours, so i wend out and spent 90 minutes spraying everything with 24D / Brush killer .... Just got back for lunch and weather says 45% chance of rain by 1 PM and lasting for an hour.............. you just cant win !!
Like them all, but love the "B"s.

Need to go spray beans on a field I rent up the road house on the east side and south side. 10mph wind out of the northwest. Guess I need to get the sprayer ready and wait for the wind to calm down.🙁 It would be nice if we could just dial back the wind oro hold that rain off for a couple hours sometimes

Dan, how calm of weather are you going to wait for? Around here it seems the coop keeps spraying up to about 30 mph wind speed. They'll tell you, "Kept the boom low."

Calm this morning. Got the spraying done, we had a heavy dew. Hopefully it was the right amount to open up the weeds and take the chemical in. I don't have a half million dollar sprayer like the coop with the fancy tips that you can spray in the wind. Wouldn't be a problem either if the field wasn't surrounded by homes. The guy I rent the land from is ok but his wife can be kind of a xxxxx. Got be careful not to p her off.
