    If there is significant new green shoots I would consider "maybe" - otherwise leave till we get past early spring frosts etc.

    Are ragworth up to rosette stage yet ?? No signs round here.

    To get effective kill you need to strike them at the right growth stage with no frosts.

    I’d have thought mid March onwards but I suppose it depends where your located.

    See a few quite big rosettes in fields here.
