[QUOTE="Monty, post: 5144238, member: 775"] Think you're a bit early in the season targeting the thistles before they have all shown themselves. If you want a cheap effective mix 1/2 rate of fluroxypyr (we use hurler) £6/acre for the docs and any dandelions plus mix in some MCPA or 24D or both to take out all the other weeds between 1/2 rate and max rate (£3.65- £7.30/acre) depending how bad the field is. This will take out buttercups too which many seem to overlook and I think are the biggest menace of all weeds. I think pretty much any selective herbicide will kill docs, nettles and thistles but some are better than others. We tend to use the above mix in spring to target docs, dandelions, chickweed and buttercups then use thislex later in the summer/autumn for the thistles and nettles in grazing fields sometimes mixed with 24D for buttercups [/QUOTE]
