It can be tough at times.

Have you talked to your county agent? They have plenty of people that can help you out.

I went thru the day study and test.

It is a "no brainer" and you will learn a lot.

You are referring to the applicators test correct?

Down here the county agent puts on a class and preps you for the test. 1 day - class and test. It rocked - was long, but a 5 yr license out of it.

I'm exactly sure how it is done locally but I will find out next week. I was told that the local Coop can help you prep for it but I'm not holding my breathe. Hopefully the extension office will do that.

On the topic of the weed wiper, I assume you are using a tractor mounted model? What size are you using? As far as 12 volt power, what did you use for your source?

Yes, would love to see some pictures.

Seriously thinking about a 6ft model. I think 10ft. would be a bit cumbersome for some of my smaller paddocks. An 8ft. would be nice but I don't know if a custom built is more expensive. A bit torn to be honest but 10ft. might just be worth it in the long run as we expand into more land.

I need to look into wiring a 12v power source as I don't currently have bus or cig lighter.

Depending on what you are targeting, their might be a good herbicide to kill it. My problems are getting so much better, I might sell my grassworks unit in the next year or so.
