    Hello all


    i got a recommondation to use "crop linkl empire" for killing off docks, has any one any experiance in using this?? Also the clover could be killed off if used too strong

    Also i used to use asolox, i was reasonably happy with it but was told this is better,


    looking for opinions

    thank you james

    I was sure asolux was made to kill ferns and the last time I used it payed
    something like 70 euro a gallon I think.As for Docks I seen good results with kill dock and some other cheap ones 30 to 40 euro per gallon.

    Be careful, Croplink Empire isn't cleared for dock control in grassland, if you use it and the Dept finds out you'll get a penalty on your SFP.

    It's a generic version of Ally, which in my experience is good on docks but harsh on the grass.

    My advice would be to look at one of Eagle (safe on clover), Starane 2 (or one of the cheaper generic clones of it) or Dockstar.

    I've used both Eagle and Dockstar to good effect, but found that a repeat spraying was needed.
    Timing is critical for a decent kill.
