Re: Atrazine
In our neck of the woods, west central Iowa, liquid atrazine is usually cheaper. Don't know why. If I'm spraying water i like to use dry flowable because then I have no rinsing. I don't like to use large totes because of settling issues with liquid. If you are going to spray using fertilizer definitely go with liquid. Dry flowable will not always disolve properly in fert.

Re: Atrazine
The only drawback with dry, you got to have good agitation!

Re: Atrazine
A lot of very good points here Shag - But for me - i always use the liquid -- The biggest draw but here in IN - is in the spring and we get a cold snap -- that 4L will pump like a Milk Shake - You really need to check the calibration on your meter - as the Milk Shake will pump harder - then when it warms back up you will need to check it again .
Very good point about the nozzels - That stuff will dry up over night and cause problems the next day - I flush the booms every night --- I only forgot one time Haven't forgot since -

Re: Atrazine
Boom rinsing, well not knowing when my phone (leash) is going to ring to report to my off the farm job, I generally rinse them after each load. I don't have a nurse system in place yet so refilling is my Achilles Heel at this point. I'm old fashioned, still throw the garden hose in to fill er up but that is another issue I'm hoping to change in the near future. If I had more acres to cover, this would be towards the top of my list, but hasn't been a big issue yet.

Re: Atrazine
I rinse out at night too, if I know the rig gonna sit for a day or two, but with the dry, usually doesn't give me a problem overnight
Shaggy, it's just like everything thing that we use, what works best for us individually, you stick with it!
