Growth stages of a weed seedling
vegetative
reproductive
maturity
Seedling stage - cotyledons may be present along with first true
leaves
- plants are small and easily controlled
- leaf surface is easily penetrated because waxy
coating and surface hairs are not well developed
- younger plants have small roots near soil surface
- small size requires less herbicide for control and no
unsightly patches of dead weeds
Vegetative stage - rapid growth of stems, roots, and foliage
corresponding with rapid uptake of water and
nutrients, the moving of water and nutrients
throughout the plant, and the production of plant
sugars through photosynthesis
- many herbicides are much more effective in this
stage
Reproductive stage - flowering and seed production or fruit set
- growth is limited and uptake of water and nutrients
is slowed
- translocation of water, nutrients, and sugars is
directed to reproductive parts, flowers, fruits, and
seeds
- movement of nutrients and sugars and herbicides
to the roots is reduced
