1. Label: There are no preplant
restrictions on the label for cotton which means you could apply Warrant
anytime prior to planting……or replanting.

thoughts:
A. I
strongly discourage you from following Monsanto’s preplant label recommendation
for Warrant; our data suggests injury from Warrant can be significant if
planting to quickly behind a Warrant application.
B. Our
data and experiences suggest the following:
No-till into 3 pt Warrant
|
Strip-till in to 3 pt of Warrant
|
7
days = 30 to 50% stunting
|
7
days = 0 to 20% stunting
|
14
days = 0 to 30% stunting
|
14
days = no stunting
|
21
days = no stunting
|
21
days = no stunting
|
C. Things to Consider:
1. I have no clue how much Warrant is in the
planting zone after 4 inches of rain. If
the Warrant is gone then these suggestions are conservative but these results
have been consistent over the past 3 years.
2. We are developing an irrigation system to
help us use research to better understand where herbicides are located in the
soil profile and how active they are after varying amounts of
rainfall/irrigation have occurred. This
system should be operational for next season’s crop.
3. I have gotten so many calls about Warrant, I
will have several different demos available for viewing on our June 26 tour.
