Johnson Grass Can Be Whipped in One Season Says Expert
Wylie Roberts, County Agent, says Johnson grass can be eliminated from Texas cotton fields in one season with proper cultural methods plus spot spraying. He recommends early season oil sprays using naphtha with diesel or kerosene, or water solutions like sodium dalapan, applied to the crown or foliage as appropriate. A hand sprayer is advised for safe spot spraying and a copy of B-902 is available from Roberts' office.
