For the most part, wheat is currently ahead of schedule and performing in its G30-32 growth stage. The early wheat growth is also leading to early weed pressure. We have been seeing lambsquarters, ragweed, chickweed, and stinkweed especially. Weeds will need to be sprayed within the next couple of weeks. If you are unsure of what chemical you need to combat the weeds in your field, please feel free to call your agronomist for advice.

Please keep in mind that with the colder temperatures arising, it may become too cold to spray wheat. Wheat needs a minimum temperature of 5 degrees Celsius 24 hours before and after spraying to avoid any crop injury.
If ideal conditions continue, we may see an early wheat harvest, followed up by some double-crop soybeans.
