It appears I have created a very favorable environment for giant goldenrod to thrive in my new 7 acre switchgrass planting. The area was fall sprayed with gly, seed was drilled in late Nov, applied 4-5 qts of atrazine in early April, and sprayed gly again about May 1st. The only green now is a thick, widespread stand of giant goldenrod. Since this is a native perenial plant, is my only option to wait and spray with 2 4-D after the switchgrass grows to the 5-leaf stage? Would mowing the tops off help slow its growth and shading effect? Thanks!
