Trying to get my plan in place to kill the grass around my spruces. I'm wondering if i should try to spray the grass when it's young this spring, or wait and mow it once, and come back in a couple weeks and then spray the regrowth? I don't know if I need to worry about cool and warm season grasses, or just hit it when it looks like its all up in spring.

Planning to buy some cleth from Rural King if I can't find a better price/product from my couple agronomy outfits.

We got small trees via DNR years ago and has to battle the grass big time to get them to grow. Spray when the grass is young and green and then through summer as needed. For sure spring and fall when the grass is growing the most. Working good for us.

We plug our sprayer and only spray three feet right over the trees and drive over the rows with the tractor

I've been doing it for years. right after frost is out of ground and before they bud. you can spray right over them. I planted a thousand and it works great
