Christ that's a fair covering of docks!
To be fair I should have said that was just one small patchChrist that's a fair covering of docks!

My ride on mower doesThe issue is sorted now but, as you discovered, fluroxypyr doesn't do fat hen.
No I grew forage brassicas in it last 2 years. Was grass all my life. Sprayed it off in 2018 and direct drilled them in. Worked very well. There was still a lot of turf so I did the same last year. This year sprayed it off and gave it a good discing and then it was sown with an opico and then flat rolledHow in the fudge is he going to top that? It's barely 3 inches tall in places?
He has buttercup, seedling docks, chickweed and all sorts coming in that. A topper won't touch those.
Is there any clover in the sown mixture? I looked hard cut can't see any.
I'd leave it another week and spray it with 2-2.5 litres of Polo and 0.5 litres of hurler or similar.
There is going to be a bit of weed grass in it but there is nothing you can do about that. Was it ploughed?
He dont need to top yet the weeds ain't competing . Like the man said your obsession is sprays . Not being rude if I ask how many years hands on farming experience have you had . Most people with any experience will tell you that you can get rid of 95% of annual weeds by grazing or topping and it does the grass the world of good . Any spray will check the grass [emoji3]How in the fudge is he going to top that? It's barely 3 inches tall in places?
