Chemical control of Canada thistle
Canada thistle can be controlled by 2 4 D ester though eradication from a single treatment is unlikely. Top growth in cereals responds to 6 to 8 ounces acid equivalent between four leaf and early shot blade stages. Fall applications of 1 to 1 1 2 pounds 2 4 D ester give best stand reduction in fallows, with a second treatment two weeks later. A well planned eradication program should include fence lines roadsides and waste areas with 2 4 D ester when thistles are in bud. Continuous treatment and proper timing are essential.
