Comment:
Planted GLBRC Main Site G2 sorghum all replications, reps 2, 5, 1, 3, & 4. Variety Planted: Iowa State University HPS5500. Planting Depth: 1.00 inch. Planting Population: average population of 75,000 seeds per acre. Seed Treatment: Iowa State University HPS5500 was treated with Concep III (seed safener), Apron (systemic fungicide) and Maxim (systemic insecticide). No seed tag or label was available with the seed lot that was sent from Iowa State. Fertilizer rate controller on the planter was not working correctly so we decided to apply the N before planting with the N side-dress applicator toolbar. Look for the ag-log entry for the 28% fertilizer application of 50lbs of N/A (16.7 gals/A) that was applied before planting.
