dogdoc Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 welcome to RT. I have always liked EH products. The Rack Force contains clover, alfalfa, and chicory. I don't know what type of weeds you are dealing with but there is a little problem that a lot of people run into when adding chicory to a perennial legume mix. You can use a product such as Poast that will kill all your unwanted grass weeds. For broadleaf problems you can purchase some Butyrac 2000 (2-4D-B). This will not harm your clover or alfalfa but has the ability to kill your chicory. As far as I know there is nothing you can spray for broadleaf weeds that will not potentially hurt the chicory. good luck todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LETMGROW Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 We have a couple clover-chicory plots we mow the same way. They are oddly shaped and difficult to manuver the larger tractors and mowers in. We have never sprayed anything on the plots with clover and chicory. Keep the mowing up and you will be happy with the results. Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
