Image rebuild (skip scrape) / build (push) Failing after 1h37m12s
Dockerfile: self-contained image with corpus + Chroma + BM25 baked in. Drawbar's compose pulls + runs without volume mounts. Built from sources.json (labels schema), PRODUCT_NAME=crop_chem by default, HYBRID_SEARCH=true (always-on for production quality). RERANK_URL + OLLAMA_URL get set at compose time. .gitea/workflows/refresh.yml: monthly cron (1st @ 06:00 UTC) does full scrape → reindex → image push. Scrapes Bayer (~30 min) + EPA PPLS row-crop filtered (~7h). Skips reindex+push if no corpus diff. Tags pushed: :latest, :<sha12>, :corpus-<YYYY.MM.DD>. .gitea/workflows/image-only.yml: on-demand or auto on code-only pushes to main (paths: docs_mcp/, rag/, scrape/, requirements.txt, Dockerfile, sources.json). Reindexes from committed corpus, builds image, pushes. ~10 min vs ~9h full refresh. .gitignore: corpus/ now COMMITTED (4,159 labels, 265 MB of .md + sidecars). Lets image-only.yml rebuild indexes without re-scraping. chroma/ + bm25/ still gitignored (regenerable binary indexes). .dockerignore: drops venv, eval results, PLAN/README/CLAUDE.md, deploy/, .git/ — keeps the image lean. corpus + chroma + bm25 explicitly NOT in dockerignore (those go INTO the image).

Apply using an HCBT or an Eight-Bag Batch Treater. Shake GAUCHO 600 Flowable thoroughly before use. Dilute GAUCHO 600
|
||||
Flowable with water and/or an approved Bayer CropScience fungicide mixture. The final slurry rate should be adjusted to apply a rate
|
||||
of 8 - 10 fl. oz. of diluted slurry per 50-pound bag of seed. Treat one-half of seed with one-half of slurry mix. Add balance of the seed
|
||||
and apply balance of slurry. Allow mixing until seed is thoroughly covered. Apply 0.75 oz. of dry TALC per 50-pound bag of see d
|
||||
following the GAUCHO 600 Flowable application and allow it to distribute evenly on the seed.
|
||||
|
||||
Wheat, Barley, Oats, Rye, Triticale:
|
||||
To provide early season protection of seedlings against injury by aphids (including Bird cherry-oat, English grain, Greenbug, a nd
|
||||
Russian wheat aphid), Hessian fly, apply 0.8 to 2.4 fluid ounces per hundredweight of seed prior to planting as a slurry treatm ent. Low
|
||||
use rate for "wireworm-only" protection: GAUCHO 600 applied at the 0.13 - 0.26 fl. oz. per hundredweight of seed offers suppres sion of
|
||||
wireworm activity on seed and young seedlings. To provide early season protection from grasshopper damage, GAUCHO 600 should
|
||||
be applied to seed at 1.2 to 2.4 fluid ounces per hundredweight. To reduce early season damage caused by grasshopper, GAUCHO
|
||||
treated seed may be planted as a 50 to 60 foot border around the edges of the field. Consult your local university extension
|
||||
entomologist for details regarding grasshopper control in your area. For maximum effectiveness, seed must be treated uniformly . Use
|
||||
the higher rate to provide increased length of protection and from heavy insect pressure and from wireworms, and to reduce pote ntial
|
||||
spread of Barley yellow dwarf virus due to aphid vectors. Do not graze or feed livestock on treated areas for 45 days after planting.
|
||||
Wheat, Barley, Oats, Rye, Triticale: For End-Use Application At Agricultural Establishments:
|
||||
Apply using a Total Slurry Treater (TST), Farmer Applied Seed Treater (F.A.S.T.), Bayer CropScience Air Pressure System (BCSAP) or
|
||||
other on-farm seed treating equipment to deliver accurate rates of GAUCHO 600 Flowable to achieve optimum product performance.
|
||||
Apply 0.8 – 2.4 fl. oz. per hundredweight of seed. GAUCHO 600 Flowable should be combined with a Bayer CropScience fungicide
|
||||
product for seed and seedling protection against fungal pathogens, as well as insect pests. Dilution with water may be necessa ry
|
||||
depending on fungicide formulation used. GAUCHO 600 Flowable may also be applied on-farm as an over-treatment to seed
|
||||
pretreated with a fungicide. In this case, dilution is necessary. Do not graze or feed livestock on treated areas for 45 days after
|
||||
planting.
|
||||
Sorghum, Millet:
