UC Weed Science (weed control, management, ecology, and minutia)

From the UC Strawberries and Caneberries blog :: Oct. 11, 2013 A response to the question posed to us concerning how soon one should be applying water to Chateau (flumioxazin) sprayed in the furrows for weed control in strawberry.

I led a team to develop a weed identification wheel for use by people who don't have a lot of background in weed management.

Greetings all. I'll get back to some serious posts, soon. However, I thought I would celebrate the turning of the seasons with song. Nerdy songs. Songs only a scientist could love. FYI, some of these come with annoying commercials that you need to skip...Enjoy.

From the Topics in Subtropics blog :: July 5, 2013 It is not always easy to kill weeds with herbicides for several reasons, but if you apply the right material at the right time to susceptible weeds you expect control. But you should never assume it, because resistant weeds rely on this assumption.

I'm at my desk today catching up (slightly) on things that accumulated during the past few months when it seemed like I was in meetings more than I was anywhere else.
