What determines whether a given plant is a weed? A weed is any unwanted plant
What are the two main goals of weed management? The primary goal is to minimize weed competition and the other main goal is to
limit the weed's reproduction in order to manage the weed population in years
to come.
Distinguish grasses from broadleaf plants and Grasses are considered monocots, meaning they have a single seed leaf, they
herbaceous from woody plants also have narrow leaves with parallel veins and a fibrous root system. Broadleaf
plants have two seed leaves and are therefore called dicots, they have broad
leaves with veins that form a net patterns. Broadleaf plants can be further
classified into herbaceous and woody, where the woody plants have a thick
layer of dense tissue called bark, which herbaceous plants lack.

Describe the life cycles and propagation of annual, Annual plants live for less than a year, they produce many seeds in one growing
biennial, and perennial plants season, and then die. Summer annuals winter as seeds, and winter annuals winter
as a low-growing plant, both summer and winter annuals are easiest to control
when they are small. Biennial plants live for two growing seasons, they germinate
from seed in the spring or summer and winter as a rosette of leaves. They flower
in their second year, produce seeds and then die. Both annuals and biennials
reproduce only by seed. Perennial plants live for at least 2 years and sometimes
longer, they may reproduce by seed or vegetatively through several different
mechanisms.
What is needed to kill annual, biennial, and perennial To kill annuals or biennials, you must kill the whole shoot. Controlling these
weeds and when is it easiest to do so? weeds with tillage or herbicides will kill them plus stop seed production, which
will reduce future weed problems. The most effective way to kill perennials is to
destroy the underground vegetative structures by either repeatedly tilling the
soil or by using a herbicide that translocates to destroy all of the plant parts.
How should you time herbicide application with respect All weeds may start as seedlings and it is most effective to treat the plants at this
to a plant's life cycle and which timing is most effective? stage because less energy is required to kill the plants at this stage than at any
other. Biennials and Annuals are controlled by a fall or early spring treatment,
and perennials are controlled best with a fall treatment as well.

What are the effects of soil texture and organic matter Soil organic matter and clay particles can adsorb soil-applied herbicides,
content on application of soil herbicides? meaning more herbicide will be required in these types of soils because the
herbicide will be bound to the soil particles and will not be available to be
absorbed by the weeds.
How do you keep soil herbicides from moving off Do not apply herbicides to areas where they may leach into groundwater, or run
target? off into water sources or cropping areas. Also avoid applying herbicides to areas
where desired tree and shrub roots may extend and DO NOT apply herbicides
to frozen soils.
How and when should you apply soil herbicides? Soil treatments are commonly used when a site requires residual non-selective
control, such as electric transformer stations, rail ballasts and signpost bases.
They can be applied any time that the soil is not frozen, and some soil applied
herbicides need to be transported by rain to be absorbed by the plant.
When are foliar sprays appropriate and not appropriate? Foliar sprays are not recommended for large brush because of the potential for
drift. Foliar sprays should be operated from the ground close to the plant and
can either be applied through broadcast or spot application.
