TOY 1,
Did you ever have a chance to researce the " Ropewick Bar" as discussed
on the " New RTV 1100 cab doors removable ? " Thread ?

If so, are you able to use it in your farming ? Used mine again this morning for about five hours. These things are great for getting rid of unwanted grass in your crops ~~~~~~~

A ropewick is a PVC pipe, with rope applicators . The roundup or any other chemical wished to be used, is filled up inside the wickbar, as the bar is adjusted 4-9 inches, ( or whatever you are comfortable with) above the crop that you wish to harvest. The "rope" applicator rubbs the unwanted plant, that has grown "above" the crop you wish to keep. The chemical is applied to the unwanted plant which will die off just as if you would have sprayed it. No chemical ever touches your crop that you are growing for profit !
It saves alot of time, MONEY, cuts all your expenses to almost nothing.
I going to try to attach some links of some wickbars, some of them may be looking big as they may be installed on big tractors, you can purchase the bars at any width that you want. But I made mine 8 foot wide for the RTV, and it works PERFECT !!!!!!!!!!!

Why Use a Wick Bar?

For maximum crop yield, a wick bar is a versatile, fuel-efficient, and easy-to-use tool for both broadcast, row-crop farming and also use in your pasture and orchard.

Correct application kills noxious vegetation growing above your crop. Kills most broadleaf weeds as well as Johnson grass, volunteer corn, shatter cane, pigweed, etc.

- Environmentally safe application eliminates costly down-time due to wind or spray drift.
- Simple to operate with no pumps or guages.
- Folding bars aid access to remote fields.
- Built Farm-Hand Tough to Last!

LET ME KNOW IF THIS HELPS OR NOT ~~~~~
THESE "BARS" SURE MAKE FARMING ALOT EASIER, AND KEEPS MORE MONEY IN YOUR POCKET WITHOUT THE PROBLEM OF THROWING YOUR MONEY THREW A SPRAY UNIT !!!!
