We have had excellent success with Grazon regardless of when we sprayed. We have found Grazon to be highly effective on thistles and nettles.
We sprayed an area for goat weed yesterday. Before the afternoon was done, the goat weed had started to wilt.
Grazon will not harm livestock, but you don"t want to get it on the livestock anymore than you want to get it on you, so I would advise removing the livestock until you are finished spraying.
Keep in mind that the chemical passes through the animal and is in the manure. That means do not use the manure on a garden or flower bed.
A couple of years ago, I had been spraying an area with Grazon and still had some in the tank. Decided to just let it spray on the way back to the shop. On a whim, drove through the middle of some berry vines that were at least 3 ft tall. This was in July. Went back a month later and you could tell exactly where I went through the berry patch. Everything that got sprayed was dead as a doornail.
Obviously, it is easier to kill weeds when they are small. Since we don"t have an infestation of thistles, I usually spot spray them. Have killed them completely even when they were 3 ft. tall and more.
If thistles are your target weed and the area is just a few acres, you could do a spot spraying.
