Using Roundup QuickPRO which has Diquat as 1 of the 2 ingredients works for a faster knockdown and aborbs throughout the root system better. Below is a step by step guide on how to ensure the saplings won't regerminate.
Step 1 - Space cuts around the trunk of a mature tree, using a hatchet. These cuts should go down at an angle, exposing some inner flesh of the trunk. Alternatively, cut a straight line around the trunk, removing the bark along the line. For saplings, there's no need to remove bark because the young bark is thin.
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.
