I’m in Southern PA with established 5 acre pasture (Perennial Rye with some KY Blue and Orchard). Despite optimized pH and fastidious mowing broomesedge is getting aggressive and I need to spray for the first time. My research says Croasbow plus prior to first mow of the season (mid May). I have some volunteer clover which I can sacrifice. I need to spray it with a non-ionic surfactant. Can someone clarify and recommend an agent? I have a small boom sprayer. I’d love to sub this out to a farmer or county ag but neither are options given the small area and competing larger operations. TIA.
Usually, you add the surfactant to the sparyer tank with your weed killer (Crossbow in this case). Basically, it helps the herbicide stick. If you have a local farm Co-operative, they should be able to help point you to a product that works well in your area. But, names I have carried here are TopSurf and FS Aqualight.
Some brands won’t really have a special name, but just say “Surfactant”. Example
