Late yesterday we received the results of tissue samples on the beans. Extremely low in N, with minor deficiencies in other items. Decided to put about 30+lbs of Chilean in the ground with the "slotter" we built this spring.......probably 6-8 inches from the row. We will include fish oil for carbon and phosphorous, the Chilean, plus a small quantity of trace elements.....putting the liquid in ground about 4-5 inches, running a slot about 10 inches. We just received 3-5 inches of rain (depending on the field), so we should have a recharge that should help move the N. We will then still foliar feed a little N and fish oil.......since we need to put on more bug control juice anyway. Question-------since the plants are 6--12inches tall, I am betting that the supplied N will not adversely affect the plant's abilities to obtain/formulate its own N........am I close to being right?
