hi, does weed spawn everytime on field or its random?
Based on game updates and changes, you can weed with a weeder past stage 1 BUT, you WILL destroy your crops. Preventative spraying "sort of" works meaning if you spray immediately after seeding or planting and the weeds will NOT sprout at all. Herbicide is COMPLETELY INEFFECTIVE with full grown weeds once the crop is fully ready for harvest. DEAD WEEDS EFFECT crop yield in game. Finally, planting grass next to a crop field simultaneously will result in weeds in the grass when spouted that cannot be removed in game based on a calculation bug,
Thanks for the info, but you may want to try to get more on point and a lot less useless banter, could have done the same amount of useful information in 5mins instead of 18.
Is there any advantage at all having weeds turned on? Or, is it part of the game strictly for realism? It seems to be a huge drain on time/money/effort…
good video as normal very enjoyable to watch and pretty full of info HOWEVER one thing that is NOT realistic about the sprayer is on grass type plants such as wheat they are in the same family as weeds so the sprayer would really kill the crop aswell as the weeds
idk about beans corn that stuff but im pretty sure grass family plants it will kill because i had a 10acre crop of weat last year irl and used a weed killer on it and it killed my crop and i was kinda pissed because i had put about 5k usd in some seed and a small planter and stuff and instead of making my own wheat it killed it and i lost 5k not that big of a deal because i had 30k saved up for it but it still hurt to pretty much throw 5grand out the window
Has anyone noticed you can actually mow out the weeds? Was doing some mowing this morning and accidentally mowed the weeds on a field! Sorry if this has already been metioned.
I’ve found that if you kill the weeds either weeder or spraying after sowing they don’t grow back. If you try killing them before sowing they just come back again afterwards. I’ve tested this a few times and I only have to spray/weed once. Hopefully this helps.
I had an unusual situation last night, I had a field of soybeans. It had fully grown weeds in the last dark green growth stage of the soybeans crop.
So the 4th dark green stage..
I killed the weeds with herbicide, but the dead weeds still seen inside the crop… My yield was normally around 5,500 litres, but once I harvested said field my yield was reduces by 3 thousand litres for some reason.
I'm wondering if I needed to kill the weeds at an earlier stage of the soybeans growth.
You helped me tremendously! I was so frustrated about why my weeder wasnt working. I thought maybe it was a glitch but I guess im just the one that was glitched lol
You get a penalty of -15% yield if you use herbicide btw, but its better than the -20% you'd get if you left the weeds alone, so its always better to kill them with the weeder. Also added tip dont forget to do two fertilizing sessions per field, its best to do this with a planter that applies solid fertilizer if youre feeling lazy or if you wanna decrease cost applying slurry or manure before they sprout, additionally the only vehicles capable of crossing growing fields while crop destruction is turned on is the sprayer and tractors equipped with field tires, semi trailers and trailers cannot switch to these tires so its important to remember while playing with crop destruction, so if your crops are already growing and you need to weed them or fertilize them a sprayer is the way to go.. most cost effective is manure or slurry though since you can make it yourself with some cow pies and such
Ive noticed what the AI like to do is let the weeds grow on freshly plowed fields then weed them before sowing, since they only usually ever appear once per harvest, if you speed up growth however it can bug out and grow twice in a single harvest
Can you not use the mechanical weeder on a field if you have crops growing? I had two fields sowed with the plants grown to the last green stage in the status map, then the little baby weeds popped up and I tried to use the weeder but it won't remove them, no matter how many times I drive over the field. The only way I could destroy them was to use a sprayer filled with herbicide. I'd have thought regardless of crop growth state, the weeder should be able to remove weeds in their first growth stage.
Mr. Sealy P first off I love all your videos they're awesome and please keep up the amazing work. Second: you can pull weeds out in the first and second growth stages of the crop as long as the weeds are in their first growth stage. Just felt it a worthy addition to the guide. Love you work love the videos and keep them coming.
what I have noticed on weed control is that sometimes the weeds grow TWICE in a full growth cycle. I think (although not full tested) that this depends on when the first cycle started. So for example, on one field I had weeds growing before I had even finished seeding. Well later that field had not only a full set a weeds but it also had those weeds right when the field matured. I watched my fields closely for this education and I think its fair to say that there will be times (regardless of game speed) in which you will have to spray because those weeds will just magically pop up at the wrong time.
I know this doesn't pertain to weeding, but in another video you mentioned how the condition of the equipment was off. I just used the Lemken Titan 2 for 1.8 hours and it was completely broke, $486 to repair it. And that was only one field.

VERY HELPFUL SIR! Thank you o7
How about the weed next to the fields on grass area
If you turn the little weeder on it gets rid of adult weeds and it wont consume any seeds
I'm late, but thanks for this! It seems to be hard to find a detailed enough tutorial… Thanks again!
How did u fix the screen size problem
How do you transport the crates of herbicide to your farm?
How many of you smokes weed everyday? 😛
Q.: Can you get rid of the (adult) weeds "until" harvest? Or…
Does it effect your yield when harvesting?
Thanks for the info, but you may want to try to get more on point and a lot less useless banter, could have done the same amount of useful information in 5mins instead of 18.
Thank you for these tutorials I'd be lost lol
Well thank the stars I found your videos just got the game yesterday and don't know what I'm doing but your videos are helping me out loads
Thank you for the information I just got the game and still learning it I have it on Xbox one
I wonder if you spray just after harvest and cultivating, if it prevents weeds growth? I tried it to see.
But in barley i cant kill weeds with sprayer deltis 1302 MTA3 and herbicides..
Very informative for me as I am a very new player! Thanks!

Thx IT helped me a lot 😀
Without you I don’t know if I could play this game! Your amazing! Thank you so much for all the fun! Love your content! ❤️

My weed don't go brown automatically? Why?
Could u just cultivate the field that was cultivated for the same results
My weeds don't turn Brown and won't go away, iv turned them off and back on and still doesn't work,any advice?

?
I think there ate more then 2 growth states to weeds….I believe there are 4.
Two states of the young weeds and two states of the adult weeds.
?
I think the patch affected crop yield with weeds…..
How did u get all that money?
Can you delete the sprayed weeds with a weeder?
You helped me tremendously! I was so frustrated about why my weeder wasnt working. I thought maybe it was a glitch but I guess im just the one that was glitched lol
How do you turn your Vehicle lights on
Weeds do not work properly because they do not lower the yield
Am I correct to assume you cannot remove weeds on a field that's ready to harvest?
hello you doing a phenomenol job to help and show us keep it upp mr sealpy

Genetic modified crops to withstand herbicide:)
Well done.
my ps4 is cutting off the edges of the HUD in FS19. How do i fix that?
Well done. Saves us a lot of guessing. The weed feature adds some of the badly missed Soil mod featues back into the game. To me, that is good.
How have you accumulated such a large amount of money to use for these videos on PS4?
Thanks for the video.
