    Hi everyone.

    Hope all are keeping well in these challenging times.

    I just have a query. We are starting to have a problem with docks in one area of a field and in other pockets. All in the silage ground.

    I was just wondering can I apply doxstar Pro with a knapsack sprayer. A mate of mine has some and has said we can see how we get on with it. I was reading the label however and it says not to apply with hand held equipment.

    Thanks in advance.

    I think a lot of sprays mention this about not been suitable for a knapsack.
    Docks are the worse weed in grass land in my opinion. They are a bitch to kill. It will take several goes to rid of them. I have sprayed them last year and just sprayed them again this week. Mind you they were not as bad as last year. I would imagine it will take be another year or two to stop them returning.

    Thanks for your reply Theheff. The knapsack would be a lot handier for the spot they are in instead of mixing a heap of it for the sprayer.

    Doxstar is not suitable for knapsack

    You'll never get dilution or application rate right

    Use Lupo
