Clover safe sprays

[ollie989898]

You will not do the clover much good initially but clover comes back ( around here anyway) so we don t bother with clover safe now , spray with best spray to deal with problem and let the clover recover over time.

In theory the clover should shrug off things like headland polo.

No, there was something else in it which is now banned.
Can’t remember exact active. Benazolin or something sounding along those lines.

Used to be able to get straight Benazolin, Galtak I think... Mustard on new leys (unofficially) for chickweed, docks...and cloversafe! Was a rape product I think..

Triad and spruce will kill seedling docks in new leys. Against established docks you have no hope, full rate spruce might have a go at them.

Pinnacle was ok but it was like shooting the clover in the guts.

Squire ultra will do a few other weeds into the bargain but don't expect it to do everything. If used alone it will take a long long time to show symptoms and full effect on the docks. Don't spray it and think it hasn't worked in a week.

Clovermaster and spruce will not touch chickweed.

Don't the Irish still have legumex? If making up your own tankmixes bewary of the dose rate of MPCA involved, in legumex (and tropotox, remember that?) the dose was tiny.

Yes Legumex is still available over here à ce moment.
