Noxious Weed Control Tips
For best results, control noxious weeds this fall. Biennial
plants (Musk Thistle) have a two year growing cycle. In the
next few weeks, biennial plants will form a rosette (circle of
leaves on the ground).
Next spring, if left untreated, the rosettes will produce a
stalk and set seed. Biennial plants reproduce only by seed.
Once plants have been allowed to produce seed, many
plants have seed that can remain viable for years.
For instance, Musk Thistle seeds can remain viable for 10
years. Controlling biennial noxious and invasive plants this
fall by spraying at rosette stage will give you a head start on
next year's weed management plan.
Remember how windy each spring seems to be, and
spray drift is harder to control with new crops near your
pastures.
Treatment can be applied any time until the ground
freezes. Best control is either Tordon 22k at 10-12 oz per
acre or Milestone at 3 oz. per abre.
If you have any questions, please contact the Jewell
County Weed Department at 785-378-4052.
