Weed Control Issues

I hope by now that everyone realizes that the days of using only one chemical to control weeds are gone.  We need to go back to the "old" days of soil applied residual herbicides for most of our control.  Roundup should be used only to clean up weeds.  Liberty resistance has not emerged, but keep in mind that Liberty is not highly rated for some of our troublesome weeds.  Also be ever vigilant for Palmer Amaranth.  Aaron Hagar offers lots of advice in this bulletin about Palmer. It is not too late to beef up your weed control.
