Automatic Pyrethroid Spray
Edwards notes that another challenge that goes along with late burndown is planting cotton where the weeds have just died. Cutworms, thrips or spider mites may present a problem since these pests tend to harbor themselves on weeds that are out in the field.
"We're making an automatic pyrethroid spray right now on these places to make sure we don't have any cutworm problems," he says. "It actually went out with the Roundup and diuron. Then, when we get past the four- to five-leaf stage, the crop will mostly be in Mother Nature's hands."
