What do you guys use for pre and post emerge? Have a tough time with pigweeds. Come right thru treflan and whatever the command/cucurbit product is at full rates. Sandea won't touch them.
Been tough, dry year here.
A Hoe.
Disk right before planting. Plant with a Covington planter with 5-10-15. When the plants emerge hoe them. Plow them. Hoe them. Plow them Hoe them and side dress with 13-13-13. Disk the middles with a Bush and Bog disk. Side dress with 34-0-0. Hoe some more and then disk the middles right before they run.
Lots of work :) , but if the vines cover the ground the weeds won't emerge. My worst problem has been morning glories.
