Rotary hoe tips from extension director on weed control
Washington County Extension Director Jim Frier offers two tips to maximize rotary hoe benefits. First, hoe when seedling weeds are just emerging and “in the white.” Second, throw soil to cover weeds, driving 6 to 10 mph while not looking back. Corn can be hoed after planting until several inches tall, but hold off soybeans during early sprouts.
