00:00:00
Johnny Verell. I'm out here today with Temple Roads. We're actually up here in Iowa looking at some stains up here at Kelly Garrett's Field day.
00:00:06
And you know, it's kind of amazing where I'm at in the south. Corn's already tassel where you're at.
00:00:10
Corn's not quite to this stage yet, right? Well, I've got it all over the place, right. So, I mean, we've got corn that is probably V five, V six,
00:00:17
and then we've got corn that is getting ready to tassel this week. So, you know, our, our planning window is so open, you know,
00:00:23
the rain conditions kept coming in and it kind of set us back. So we're kind of all over the place.
00:00:28
But I mean, I would say normally we're probably in that just free hassle. We be beach. Yeah. So if you're in that stage there, you know,
00:00:36
what are you getting ready to put on your corn? What, what's your next application? That's really what we need to talk about
00:00:40
because we talk about all these extra aons That's right. That we talk about all the time and,
00:00:45
and how can we use them. You know, everybody wants to say it's a snake bull, it's this, it's that.
00:00:49
But aons are a true benefit to farmers. Yeah. Because of if we know where to use 'em at. So I mean, for me, I'm in that V 10 to V 12,
00:00:59
let's just say that I'm in there. So, I mean, what, what I'm targeting is, is I'm, I'm getting ready for the next, the next version.
00:01:05
The next version is, is like I need to start ramping up phosphorus because I know that at, you know, when we get ready
00:01:11
to get into reproduction, I know that on a curve what my plan uptake's gonna be. So I'm kind of targeting, um, phosphorus.
00:01:19
I'm backing off of a potassium really. So, and, and I'll kind of genius in later on. So me, my next one is, is I'm looking, you know, fungicide
00:01:28
that I carry me, brand symptoms. I don't fungicide gramin. So my next application is gonna be high phosphorus load.
00:01:36
Yep. Right. I'm probably gonna put a PGR in there to kind of kick in the butt. Trying to kind of get that, get it going,
00:01:41
helps mitigate some stress. I'm gonna put some potassium in there that'll help mitigate stress, but not a high load of,
00:01:47
And talking about stress, you know where I'm at in Tennessee right now, it's in the upper nineties.
00:01:51
During the day we're already, we're in the pollination stage, probably past pollination stage on a lot of our corn.
00:01:55
You're getting ready to do that and your temperatures are high too. That's exactly where I'm, when you put these PGRs,
00:01:59
you put sugars in there, stuff like that, it really helps keep those plants synced up. That's, it keeps that tassel coming out,
00:02:04
that silt coming out at the same timing, you know, and you were talking about where you are. So I'm a little bit different. I'm getting ready.
00:02:09
I'll do an early fungicide of the V 10. I'm probably getting ready to start scouting for southern rust because that's what'll get us, okay,
00:02:15
if we start seeing southern rust, we're gonna put out another fungicide, maybe put out another PGR in some form,
00:02:20
but also start adding that potassium for that grain field late season. And I think that's where you were going.
00:02:24
That's where it's amazing what you can do throughout the different things. You know, we, we talked about SAP tests where
00:02:28
that's the going, stuff like that. Everything I've been pulling on my farm, I'm deficient phosphorus.
00:02:33
And so you, you already know the curve you're gonna be playing history, user repeats itself. Just have a plan in place and run with
00:02:39
It. Well you know, it's not really about, you know what I mean? Like we've been for years and years, you know, father,
00:02:45
when it says I'm building the soil, I'm building soil, how long do you wanna grow until you grown? So you're 85 years old, are you done yet? Yeah.
00:02:51
Like, and I know we're never done, I mean there crop, but I'm about, you know, growing the plant, it kind of changes your mindset And that's where some
00:03:01
of these s you come in, you know, when we talk about airlines, I mean we're talking about real return on investment
00:03:07
and if you just have to reallocate some of those funds out the front end. Yeah. You know what I mean? And
00:03:11
then kind of put 'em so far, well It doesn't need it in the front end. Right, right. So, I mean that's the big thing.
00:03:15
And you know, you look at everything. I think that's why you've been successful like you have on soybeans.
00:03:19
'cause you've managed them as a crop from start to finish, not as a stepchild. So anyways, be interesting what's going on.
00:03:25
Temple's got a field day coming up in August, end of August. I got one beginning of August.
00:03:28
We'll keep you posted on those dates 00:03:30.145 --> 00:03:31.405
