Pine Seedling Specific Herbicide?

[forester2]

If I'm reading this right , this is County property? I'd think twice about doing any 'improvements' on land I did not own without the owner's permission.

YES....it is county property; but they have no problem with me trying to improve the habitat, preservation, and erosion.......There is nothing in writing between myself and the county; but rather than have the EPA, State Mining Inspectors, and Trout Unlimited from bothering them all the time due to my requests for them to do something about it, the county looks the other way as I do my subtle efforts on their upper slopes...............

No.....Forester not even scared off, just trying to figure what to do..........I just put down deer mix, flower seed, fescue, and fert the other day and waiting for the rain to help out a bit...............How do I get hold of one of these crews of guys named Valdez?????........You are saying just use a weed eater and knock them down????? That is a good thought as MOST are just seedlings that have sprouted in the last couple of months, are perhaps 3 inches tall, and have toothpick stems..............

Thanks........Dennis

Grazon will kill the pines, weeds and leave the grass ... I know from experience ... I use it for my hay fields and pastures ... Got to close to a newly planted row of pines and they did not survive. Grass looks good!!

Google forestry site prep companies in your area, or you can get in touch with SAF (society of american foresters) and see if they have an foresters in your area and use them to get them to get these crews. They use the large weed eaters with the sawblade attachements, called brush saws.
