[QUOTE="Otha, post: 1850061, member: 41397"] Our local chemical guy(not a corteva rep) that sells to both local fertilizer companies was talking the other day about grazon and duracor on dry fertilizer. He likes grazon better because the 2,4-D off gasses and does work on the leafs not just through to soil. Duracor doesn't do this as there is no 2,4-D. I don't know the science but I have seen weeds wilt the same day in dry conditions with a grazon application on dry fertilizer. As far as the rates go. We've always heard 200/lbs per acre so there are enough pellets on the ground to get get coverage. I do know there are a few people that have only been applying 150/lbs for several years and seem to be happy with the results. Just last week I ran a small patch with 150 lbs and one with 100 lbs. Both straight urea because it's less dense leading to more pellets on the ground. I used duracor because it's a lesser rate per acre and I wanted to avoid a soupy mess sense I was also running a nitrogen stabilizer. So far the weeds are beginning to wilt but we only had .2 of rain last week. Got nearly an inch last night so should have it in the ground better now. Time will tell if it's going to work season long. [/QUOTE]
