Supposedly after it dries Joe or within 24 hours, but I like to wait at least a week before I plant after spraying just to be safe. Seems Tominator asked the same thing last year.

Here you go http://www.realtree.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58319, might also look at this one http://www.realtree.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58320 starting at post #6 in that thread.

LOL--first link is not a question. :D

Second link talks about 2-4-D, not roundup. :D

I sprayed my food plot with a mixture of Roundup and 2-4-D last night so I'm all set to plant tonight.

I'm planting soybeans, corn and sunflower.

Been seeing deer out back on a regular basis in the last week or so.:cool:

:confused::o

Martin replied for you to hold off a week unless your seed was rr, did he not?

Second link does indeed talk about roundup starting after you yourself asked about, copied from that thread below. You feel like giving me more of a hard time?:p:rolleyes::D

Got to thinking about Roundup last this morning. If you read the label it says to wait a few days, anywhere from 1 to 7 as I recall.

Why is that?

I thought Roundup went inert as it hit the ground? How can it affect a seed?

Think it holds some residual Chris, I know that it tells on most glyphosate product labels to wait a certain period of time before planting different types of seed. That to me would mean that it does NOT go to an inert state on contact with the ground. I did a search on google yesterday and ran across more information on one link about glyphosate, thing is my search was for 2 4-D and pre emergent herbicides, should have copied that one to your thread too, but it was more about glyphosate and also had some information about agent orange. Will see if I can find it in my history later if I get a chance.

Guys, be careful planting after spraying 2,4-D. There are planting restrictions for most field crops from 2-4 weeks for applications prior to planting. You should not see any residual from glyphosate unless you use the Roundup extended control or tank mix with a preemerge product. We apply glyphosate on corn, cotton, soybean, and rice just prior to emergence for burndown control of weeds. The addition of 2,4-D can cause early seedling damage. With that said, you should use your own personal experiece like WTNHunt as a guide.

Interesting.

Well, live and learn. We'll see what happens as that food plot got a good rain last night, so germination should take place soon. With a combination of 2-4-D, and generic roundup, and a combination of corn, beans, and sunflower, it will be interesting to see what germinates.

If nothing does, the only thing I'm out is time and labor, and a little deisel. I got the seed for free, and sunflower is next to nothing. We'll see, I might just sow bird seed if if doesn't come up.

I'll keep y'all posted.

Think this stuff did pertain to the question Joe asked, but maybe I misunderstood something.:o:confused: Like I said Joe, I hold off a week, but that is just me.

Well, he suggested, but I never asked the question.:D

Not giving you a hard time, just been my experience that you don't have to wait a week to plant. The food plot I planted last year came up fine after waiting a day of spraying 2-4-D and roundup. The sunflower even came up.:D

Joe PM'd me about sweet corn and roundup, but I guess he wanted more opinions, that's cool. :cool:

I've got to go plant. I sprayed roundup Saturday and I'm going to plant melons, beans, cukes, squash, pumpkins and another plot of sweet corn. :cool:

Have fun bud. Everything is totally saturated here, too wet to do much of anything outside.:o We got Christina's plot in yesterday, and probably got 3 inches of rain since last night.:) Sprayed it with roundup last weekend.:p

Our promised rain fizzled, so I busted my butt for nothing. :rolleyes:
