I spot sprayed a few Docks three weeks ago, the majority looked absolutely cooked, wilting, yellow leaves, a bit of warmth and they are gradually coming alive!!

Mix to strong killed it off before it got to the root ?
Mix to weak, made them feel sick but they’ve perked up again ?
Sprayed with what?
Was it cold when they were sprayed?

Your doing something wrong then I’d cut them off then spray the new growth or wipe them with roundup of there’s not many bit of cloth on a stick does the job
