I am not far from you in central Kentucky. Herbicides are complex, so check them out for hay and grazing restrictions. Depending on where your hay man takes his hay, the long term impact of the herbicide may be a problem. If he sells hay to a lady that stables her horse where the hay is shipped to a composter and ends up in Ohio vegetable gardens and kills all their tomato plants, well they probably won't trace it back to you, but why do that to someone?But if he is going to feed it to his cows on the next farm over....no big deal. That is why I don't use Milestone.
My experience. For hay going somewhere unknown...I use Crossbow or Weedmaster.
For pastures that I often cut for hay but only use on the farm I use Grazon Next HL.
I suggest you kill the thistles first ,.....then work on the milkweed.
If it is a nice easy field to spray, not a lot of fences, gates, trees, obstacles, why not hire a sprayer with the big equipment and the licenses and the expertise to do it? In my area the charge is $6/acre...$300 minimum. No grief, no worry, no spills, no safety equipment, reduced liability, and you get his knowledge for free. He may only need to spray it once to get it under control, then you can check out smaller alternatives after the big kill.
The only reason I spray anything is because I can not move all the animals off the small pastures to allow him to spray the whole farm in one trip.

Today's Featured Article - Piston Ring Removal and Replacement - by Chris Pratt. Piston Ring Removal and Replacement - Replacing rings is a fairly easy process to stretch the engines usability between major rebuilds and cut down on that blue smoke and high oil consumption. Frequently, replacing only the rings is not advisable because by the time you do the teardown and measurement of the components, the pistons are often beyond the manufacturers specification or something else you find will signify the need for a major rebu
