Mixing herbicides

oldsmokey

Hi, we,ve a shot of brambles, nettles and ferns growing together along some boundaries. I want to hit them with grazon and asulux. Can i mix the products in the knapsack so that i only haveto spray once, or do i need to sprauy twice, ie with each product separately?

I'd say to spray twice, you never know what interactions the two might have when mixed. There used be a site with a guide on what different herbicides could be safely mixed but I can't think of it now and google isn't being helpful atm.

I’d mix them no bother. The Asulox really only heats up the mix for bracken/ferns.

Beware when filling the spray register. Allow 5days between treatments, iykwim?

Lol.

You sure they’re not allowed to be mixed?

Your eyes would be watering with some of the mixes I’m made over the years! Anyhow it’s a long way from firing slurry over hedges...:).

I've done some myself over the years, I'm well happy to stay well away from them these days. It's one thing smelling of pig slurry in a niteclub, it's a whole different ballgame smelling of fungicide and insecticide at 2am with a head of beer on me:pac:

Eau de Metasystox. You’d be beating them off with a stick!

Sprayed some really heavy stuff on cotton many moons ago. The agronomist wouldn’t enter the field for ten days after...still here anyways.
