Trying to figure out what to do with this mess. The field was corn last year and I seeded cereal rye cover crop last fall. I sprayed burndown and preplant herbicide on April 18 and didn't get a good kill. The rye was stunted for a long time, I thought that might be as far as it would go, but now it is about knee high and starting to set heads. I'm concerned that if it makes a head with seeds in it, the plants will fall over and start to grow in the late summer and then I will have tall growing rye in the beans at harvest time. I have been told that if you don't get a good kill on the rye, you will make it mad and then it is nearly impossible to kill. There are about 5 to 7 acres in a 30 acre field that is fairly thick and the rest is small patches and then a few plants here and there. I don't know if a heavy dose of Roundup will kill it or not. I'm thinking about taking the 15' flail chopper and running it just above the beans and chopping it to kill it. Any thoughts or suggestions? Chris
