  • Asked by Tracy from Gaston, Or

    Q
    What is the best time of year to spray Crossbow on blackberries?
    A

    It is recommended that you apply Crossbow Herbicide when the blackberries are actively growing. This is most likely to occur for a period after full leaf in the spring to early summer when moisture and temperature are favorable.

  • Asked by Kym from Coburg, Or

    Q
    Will Crossbow kill hemlock?
    Overrun with Poison Hemlock! And is it best to apply to foliage or cut them down and then apply? Pasture with horses actively grazing. Thank you.
    A

    Crossbow Herbicide is not labeled to control poison hemlock so we cannot recommend it for this use. Hi-Yield Range and Pasture 2,4-D Amine is labeled for it and for pastures, but horses should be removed for 7 days after application per the label.  Hi-Yield Range and Pasture Dicamba + D is also labeled for it and does not have restrictions for horses grazing in the area.  Please refer to each product label to confirm which would fit your needs more for the grass type you have in the pasture

  • Asked by J from Everett, Wa

    Q
    Have been trying to kill salal for years. How long will it take to kill it completely?
    The last bunch was cut down a month and a half ago and sprouts are coming up everywhere. Do I have to spray just the leaves or will spraying the visible wood work,too? The area is under an old cedar and fir trees. Is there something stronger I can use?
    A

    Crossbow Herbicide appears to be an effective product on salal but it can take mulitple applications.  Best way is to either spray the foliage directly or cutting the stumps/sprouts and applying as a “cut stump” as directed on the product label.

    Q
    Will Crossbow Herbicide kill trumpet vine?
    And how long after can you plant certain hardier flowers or bushes Thanks
    A

    Crossbow Herbicide is the most popular choice for trumpet vine or trumpet creeper suppression. It is very difficult to completely control this plant with a single herbicide application. Per the product label, use a 1.5% mixture as a conventional basal or dormant stem application.

    Q
    Is there a green, natural, or organic Crossbow Herbicide?
    A

    Unfortunately, we are not aware of a natural or organic herbicide that would be comparable to Crossbow Herbicide. We do sell Avenger Weed Killer Concentrate, an organic herbicide that is non-selective.

    Q
    How much crossbow per 100 gallons water for pasture land?
    A

    Depending on the types of plants being targeted in the pasture (broadleaf weeds vs more woody brush type plants) the Crossbow Herbicide Product Label states you can use between 1-4 gallons of Crossbow Herbicide per 100 gallons of water. For more mature plants, hedges, and woody brush we would suggest higher application rates for best control.

  • Asked by Greg from Bellevue, Wa
    04/21/2017
    Q
    When can I cut down blackberry vines after applying Crossbow Herbicide?
    I just applied Crossbow to blackberries in the Spring. However, they are growing fast (in my lawn), and I wanted to cut them down so I can mow my lawn. I have seen that it takes 7-14 days for Crossbow to work on blackberries, but I am specifically wondering if it is still entering through the foliage over this entire time period. In other words, I don't want to cut off the foliage while it is feeding poison to the plant. But at the same time, I need to contain the spread, so that I may now the lawn. I saw a response to a similar question that suggested pruning prior to applying Crossbow. I've already applied Crossbow and would like to know when I can cut without rendering Crossbow ineffective. Thanks!
    A

    Yes, Crossbow Herbicide is still being absorbed in the plant throughout that time period. We do normally recommend that you prune the plant before you apply Crossbow. It is recommended that you wait at least 30 days before pruning the plants once Crossbow has been applied. You can still cut the plant down after application.

    What is the mixing ratio to kill privet hedge using Crossbow Herbicide?

    06/22/2015
    Q
    Could I use a brush to put crossbow on leaf so as not to touch neighboring plants. does it go to root ?
    A
    Crossbow Herbicide is intended to be used with a pressurized sprayer and can be brushed on for stump treatments. If you are only going to be using this for a few plants, it may be better served for you to hand weed the area versus using a non-selective herbicide. It will get to the roots of your plants.
