The end of 80 degrees. Then mostly low 70's
9-30-2026
We will have excellent defoliation days through Friday. While most of the cotton is ready, a few fields will benefit from giving it all of this warm weather to gain maturity. It will be good defoliation again after the middle of next week, but temperatures will remain in the low 70's for daytime highs so it will be much slower than what gets sprayed this week. If you are on the fence on waiting or not, You can play it either way if it is mature, but waiting means you do not expect it to be picked before the end of October or November. If it is still gaining and your finding as many as 7 or 8 NACB, I would probably give it to the next good defoliating conditions. At least wait till Friday so it uses most of the heat to mature. No big changes here but a little bit of perspective.
