  1. Here's a quick overview of the treatments ISN has found most successful for controlling knotweeds: Milestone (aminopyralid) Faster kill (~3 years), more off-target effects Standard rate (3-7 oz/acre; 0.01%) Using nonionic surfactant (standard rate) Late spring (3-4 ft high) or late summer (at least 60 days before frost) When treating in late summer, it is helpful to do a cut of the plants a month or so in advance ONLY IF safe disposal of the stems is possible At some sites, repeat treatments (spring & summer) may be appropriate, so long as maximum application rates are not reached Not aquatic approved Note: Tree sensitivity issues--some trees will die if their roots mingle with knotweed that is treated with Milestone. Clearcast (imazamox) Acceptable kill (~5 years), fewer off-target effects Cocktail: 5% Clearcast 1-2% Methylated Seed Oil (MSO) Not all MSOs are aquatic-approved!! Check before applying to knotweed in areas with standing water 1-2% glyphosate (aquatic-approved formulation) Best sprayed in late summer/early fall Spraying at least 60 days before the first frost is CRUCIAL--this date will vary by location (for northwest lower MI, it's early August) Aquatic approved (if adjuvants are aquatic-approved) We have applied both of these treatments as either foliar spray or as a "cut stem" application (cutting down stems and filling the stem cavity with herbicide solution), which is a great way to avoid drift and overspray, but is more time-intensive and contains the risk of stem disposal.

  2. Hello all, curious if anyone has dealt with Hedge parsley. This has been a "new find" in our area that may have always been here and we didn't realize what it was. I am curious if anyone does treatment for this plant and what advise you have for it. I am quite certain it is hedge parsley and not cow parsley, as it is in flower right now and that seems to be the biggest identifying factor. Thanks!
