OT, 2,4-D versus Crossbow for Ironweed

Posted by KYfarm on July 14, 2007 at 13:05:19 from (74.138.200.216):

I have been renovating my hayfields the last two years by spraying them with generic 2,4-D. It has done an outstanding job but now I am left with the few weeds that it doesn't do a good job on and they are flourishing, namely tall ironweed.

I am in north-central KY.

All the Univ. of KY research that I can look up and read (and understand) says that the active ingredient in Crossbow is more effective than 2,4-D for ironweed.

My question is, have any of you guys in this or surrounding areas used Crossbow on ironweed and if so, how did it work?

The stuff is much more expensive then 2,4-D and I would like some positive testimonials before I go buy a bunch of the stuff and start spraying it.

Thanks for any help you can give.
