Hay is simply not curing. Been on the ground over a week with only dew. Have hay treat kits but it seems exorbitant to be spraying 8-12 lbs per bale. Due to strange and late conditions, can we get away with lighter applications as 85% of the 50% alfalfa/grass swath is dry?

Palmer Amaranth has made it into the PNW which is recent to past few years. No known resistance at this time, however is coming back extremely aggressive in my harvested wheat stubble. Curious of what MOA people would suggest to approach this weed as I know it adapts easily to repeated control measures. Considering glufosinate wondering if there is a better alternative? Field will go Corn in 2026 giving me a bit of flexibility with residuals if need be. Thanks for any input!
