🌿 Weeds don’t wait — neither should you. Corn is most vulnerable early on, so the critical window to control weeds is from emergence to the 6-leaf stage. Get ahead with a PRE application & follow up with timely POST. Start clean, stay clean, and protect your yield potential! 🌽

🌽 Corn planting season is here — but how deep should you go? Planting at the right depth (around 2") sets the stage for strong roots, even emergence, and better yields. Too shallow or too deep? That’s where trouble starts. #CornPlanting #AgTips #PlantingDepth #FarmSmart

🌽Early corn planting? Read first👇 Getting seed in the ground early can pay off — if the conditions are right. Before you roll, check soil temps, watch the forecast, and make sure your hybrid can handle the cold. A few days of patience now could mean bushels more at harvest. 🌱
