i suspect that version might kill or injure trees but glyphosate is safe providing trees are tubed. Here's what we use for season long control

2-4 leaves on EW but you have to calibrate your sprayer to know how much area it covers ours does roughly a 1/2 acre

Good advice Skip, wait until switch has 2-4 leaves before using 2-4D

Wow! Thanks Phil

June 14th, 2014 Jess & crew planted about 4000 miscanthus this spring, all by hand Roughly 4" deep and 1-1/2' feet apart although 3-4' is fine Most were planted where we had Egyptian Wheat screens previously and sprayed with 4 qts atrazine It should reach 4-5' the first year but time...

We use 100# urea per acre, where did you come up with 3 ? :confused:

Keystone pest solutions They carry a full line of herbicides ;)

Very winter hardy, about the size of pea seed, we mix rye, oats, peas and vetch in large seed box. :) Suggested planting rate is 30# +/-10# lower end when mixed with rye etc.

Have you planted or going to plant? What have you sprayed and when? :confused:

June 12th, 2014 The past couple falls have been exceptionally dry and clover seeded with the rye, to often failed which meant we had no nitrogen source. Interestingly however the hairy vetch not survived, it thrived! Winter rye and hairy vetch together make for cover crop supreme, capable of...

I would mow as needed

White clover can fix as much as 200# of N per acre so in theory you should be good to go, but monitor growth and color and top dress urea if needed Just before a minimum 1/2" rain) Definitely soil test and add P & K and lime as needed and leave a strip of clover around the perimeter ;)

Been better if you would have disced it in but if none was showing on top it's probably ok. Won't hurt to add more if rain is certain

Try co-op's in thumb area John

You can spray clethodim for grasses anytime then clip weeds as needed while the clover is becoming established.

We don't spray oats just mow while green but heading out then till under 4-6 weeks later We spray rye in late May and mow early July till mid July No problems with wrapping

If not to thick it should be fine

ThunderMaster Keep us posted Jason

Unless you have outstanding weed control don't waste time looking until this fall, it won't really start growing until mid July and it grows down not up the first year. Look back in this thread for pictures from last year where weed control was perfect ;)

June 3rd, 2014 We follow the spent brassica strips with 50# oats and 10# of both crimson and berseem clovers, to feed deer and the soil Both clovers are coming up nicely and should provide all the nitrogen needs for the rye mix this fall as well providing a high protein food source for our...
