HYBRID APPEARANCE AND GROWTH CHARACTERISTICS:
Very impressive early vigor. Medium plant height and a medium-high ear placement. Performs best at higher populations.
SITUATIONS SUITED FOR HYBRID:
Corn following soybean rotation and corn following corn where fall deep tillage is used. Growers who push planting populations on highly productive soils.
HOW TO ENHANCE PERFORMANCE:
Plant at higher suggested planting rates. Provide balanced fertility program with nutrient availability early in growing season and late season availability of nitrogen fertilizer. Avoid areas prone to Gray Leaf Spot pressure if following corn.
