If a grass field is sprayed with ally to hit docks hard, how long should it be left before ploughing for reseed back to grass?
Ploughing for grass reseed after Ally
- Thread starter Mouser
- Start date
Is Ally approved for use on grassland? Only comparable product I can think of is Cimmaron and label states:
“Sow only cereals within 16 months of applying Cimarron to established grassland“
That being said I wouldn’t be overly worried by residual effect of metsulfuron.

That must be the stuff, boss said it was 'ally for grassland'. Was just an idea instead of roundup which doesn't seem to kill anything long-term

Not sure, not worried about clover as it will be killed by the after reseed spray anyway

I think it would be worth making a call or two over this as this type of product can affect some types of grass far more than others from what I have read.
This sounds wise.
I'd ring Headland FMC's technical helpine as they make Cimmaron (just pretend it was that when they ask).

You didnt spray Ally on a grass field...
If you plough I reckon it would be fine. Ive established grass after wheat using min till after having used all sorts on the wheat.

Not yet, I'm wondering if I could to clear out docks, roundup doesn't kill them longterm

Round up does kill docks if it is done right. Kyleo contains a dose of 2,4D and will kill them very nicely. Its the default brand of roundup for killing old pasture now.
The alternative is to have an accident involving MCPA.
Dont mess with the SU type products.

A few customers like to apply fluroxypyr and samurai/motif/ cheap type product. Seems to do a good job of them. Kyleo will do a good job just the interval to watch

Never had a problem with roundup killing docks myself. What goes wrong, not strong enough?

When burning fields off it kills them at the time but they aren't actually killed, just come back if left. Seen lots of this last winter when ground was too wet for ploughing after being burnt off. Everything just grew back again.
