The N fertilizer treatments (0, 45, 90 and 135 lb/A) were applied as urea by hand just after each harvest date. On July 29, just five days after the Dale variety was harvested, we began to see that the ratoon tillers were already emerging (pictures 10 and 11). By August 8, the same day we “trimmed out” the plots for the later-maturing varieties, the ratoon tillers had really taken off (picture 12). Pictures 13 and 14 represent the most recent pictures taken (August 27) of the ratoon crop. The Dale variety is already well over 5 feet tall!
