I have a question. I had some, apparently, round up ready canola drift into my yard from neighbors field. What the hell kills it? Any advice greatly appreciated.

Amine 500, Ester 700, Bromoxynil, fluroxopher, MCPA. None of them will kill your grass. Don't get to close to shrubs or trees though.

Basically anything you can find at Canadian tire that will kill dandelion in your grass will knock canola on its ass.

Yep that will work really good. That is Ester 700 (24D), Mecoprop and Dicamba mixed together. More expensive than you would need to kill Canola, but will smoke it.

Basic chem theory is some takes broad leafs out of grass (group 4 & 6), some takes grass out of broad leafs (group 1), some kills everything (group 9 aka Roundup).

If it looks like this, you've applied too much.

hey guys, can anyone send me a picture of flax field damaged by hail storm? It doesn't have to be a recent storm. I need it for a client of mine overseas. Tks!
