    Q
    Will Crossbow Herbicide work to get rid of Glory Bower (Clerodendrum trichotomum)?
    We have glory bower that is sending out shoots everywhere and trying to get rid of it entirely. Will crossbow work or is there a better product?
    A

    Crossbow Herbicide should kill Glory Bower as it is a woody plant. We cannot gurantee it however because it has not been tested for it. It may be best to spot treat the Shoots with Round up

  • Asked by Eric from Copperhill Tennessee
    05/07/2019
    Q
    Do I need to cut my field before I spray Crossbow Herbicide or wait till the weeds are dead and then cut?
    A

    For most herbicide applications including Crossbow Hebicide, you want to have no mowing for 2 full days prior to treatment and no mowing for 2 full days after treatment. This will allow the plants to readily absorb the chemical and not be stressed from mowing or reduce the plant surface that the product would be asborbed through.

    Q
    Does Crossbow kill grasses?
    A

    Crossbow is not supposed to harm established grasses and should pose no threat according to the manufacturer.  This being said, we always recommend treating a small area first to test the results.  As long as your grass is not stressed by drought and it is healthy the grass will not be harmed.
