NEW CORN

[jim 1586]

WOULD IT HURT IF NEW CORN JUST UP OUT OF GROUND TO BE SPRAYED WITH 32% NITROGEN WILL IT BURN IT?

you need some drop nozzles to direct that nitrogen to the ground. You can also use bicycle inner tubes. if that nitrogen gets on the corn, it will burn it.

Many used 28% as a carrier for herbicide years ago, usually applied on taller corn (8 inches or more). It turned the leaves white, but they recovered after a few days and had no other effect on it.

daddy had to do that to some this year that got up before he could put his N on. He used 32% and puts out his Atrazine and Asana with it. It was the earliest corn he had and its gorgeous right now. It was just past pegging when he put it out. If it does get burned some, it shouldn't be a problem, it will come out of it in a week or two.
