| We have 5 weeks till everthing is moved and today I'm working on grooming the 2.5 ac. grazing plot. What do some of you use to spray for weeds. We have a lot of rag weed and another type of weed that I can't seem to figure out what it is. (Looked at 161 pictures of weeds via k-state identification page and nothing even came close) the grass that primarily grows is prairie, fescue, brome, and buffalo. |

        Location: ND--it snows, it floods, it snows, it floods | Post it here and I'll try to help with ID As for spraying try talking to the local co-op or Extension office for ideas. I try to use something with a longer residual then say 2,4-D. I myself use ForeFront however, I think they are changing the name of it to Grazon NXT. The really nice thing with that is you do not have to have a restricted use license like you do with Grazon or Tordon. Your best bet though is to talk to either of the 2 mentioned sources. Edited to add: What type of ragweed? Common or Giant??

        Location: ND--it snows, it floods, it snows, it floods | To clear up some confusion....GrazonNext or GrazonNXT is the same as ForeFront and may be sold as GrazonNext down south but is sold (for now) as ForeFront up north. Grazon R&P is a different (but similar) active ingredient and is restricted use. Grazon R&P will not be readily available as the supply runs down. Dow Chemical is making a effort to move towards the GrazonNext (NXT) formulation. |

          Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | My hubby usually recommends Grazon to people. We use Grandstand, a rice herbicide with the same active ingredient (triclopyr), because it's cheaper and easier for us to get. |
