Thanks. I've been fighting thistle for years with Roundup spot spraying, chopping them manually with a mattock and mowing. The neighbor on my east side never did anything with that pasture and their thistle will go to seed and blow all over the place. That property changed hands several months ago and the new owner did mow the field so that should help. 2,4-D unfortunately only works on the small rosettes. My other ten year struggle is getting rid of prickly pear, I had good luck with Surmount and then spot spraying for a few years but they are slowly coming back. Going to try a new herbicide called Mezavue (both are restricted.)
