Yesterday and today it's a backpack sprayer. I've got a nasty case of
false dandelion here (Hypo. It's probably going to take about 25 gallons of mixed 3% RoundUp, more than I have used in the last ten years, total. It's heartbreaking to spray gorgeous, rare, native annual fescues just to kill the 25-30 inch and a half weeds at their base, but you've gotta do it or lose the whole thing. This weed is a monster.
Do have authorization, from the County, State Of California, EPA, ESA, and the fourteen other agencies that watch the chemicals use IN nORTH aMERICA, to spray this chemical on your land? My guess is that someone will come and order you to stop, allowing the false dandelion to spread heavily throughout the County which in turn will kill off the plants native to Southern California.
Three years from now someone will notice this has occurred and wonder WHY? Then there will be a multimillion dollar investigation and four more agencies to correct what you are correcting right now, the spread of false dandelion.
