I have some horseweed or marestail started in my plots and pastures. Burndown with gly got most of it but about 20% of them woke back up and are doing fine now.
They are past the rosette stage and bolting. I want them dead before setting seed. I know spraying once won't kill them, but what if I sprayed once a week for a while? Will it eventually be to much for them? What about alternating between gly and 24d each week?
I found lots of info online about control but nothing mentioned multiple regular sprayings, I'm assuming because it would be cost prohibitive for a farmer to do. I think I may only plant wheat this winters so that I can spray rosettes with 24d and not have to worry about plotted broadleafs. Even with this plan I don't want an extra crop of seeds this yr.

Hit with them something like Gordon's Brush Killer and that'll take care of 'em.

I see you're getting input from multiple forums. My advice would be to not hit them with 4 oz. per gallon 2-4D

I thought that was pretty darn hot when he posted it. Was going to read the label again before going that route. What kind of residual affects would that have? I normally spot spray 1.3oz per gallon... or round up a little but not that much.

Next time, do a mix of Glyphosate, Sharpen and Clarity if they are thick and tall.

I can confirm that if you time a mowing correctly, you can kill the stuff. The problem I've found with mowing it is that I always seem to have marestail at different levels of maturity.
