Characteristics of Weeds

  • Diversity & density can be astounding
  • Adaptations enable species to survive
  • Adapted to co-exist with the crop
  • Modify behavior to cope with weed control
  • Germination, emergence and reproduction is

environmentally timed.

  • Impact on crops almost always underestimated

3 things that make or break weed control

  • site preparation
  • Right herbicide, applied at the right

time, and at the right rate

  • Preventing re-infestation

Site preparation

starts 2 years before planting-

  • Fallow (sod):
  • Tillage to break dormancy in

rhizomes/ rootstocks

  • Glyphosate (+ Stinger) on

regrowth; repeat as needed

  • Fall-seeded Cover
  • Roundup Ready Crops: up to 3

applications/ year 60-75 days apart

  • Seeding of permanent inter-row

covers

stage of growth

  • CT: early bloom or

rosette stage in fall

  • QG: 4 to 5 leaf stage

to heading

  • BW: early bloom

1 to 2 qt/A, in 8-12 GPA

  • fall best
  • till 4-7 days later

Inter-row Cover Crops

  • Tall/ hard fescue (can take more

than 1 year to fully establish)

– Late summer/ early fall – 50 - 75 lb/A/ 25 – 50 lb/A – Include a trace of perennial ryegrass – 50 lb N/ A at seeding/ spring

  • Bed Formation/ Irrigation
  • In-row

– Perennial rye

Summary

  • Know Crop/ Herbicide History Before Planting
  • Begin Eradicating Perennials 12-18 months

before planting

  • Use PRE Herbicides for “Broad-Spectrum” Weed

Control after Transplanting

  • Incorporate Other Chemistries in Year 2 and

beyond

  • Develop and Implement a Clean Up Plan
