Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
I am in the process of converting some fescue pastures to native
wildflower/grass meadows. I use glyphosate to kill off each pasture
3 times (spring-autumn-spring) then seed it. I understand that
flushes of dormant weeds (foxtail, oxeye daisy) are common during
the meadow establishment. <br>
<br>
Biennial thistles (e.g. bull thistle) are showing up in amazing
numbers following our 1st seeding. Should I devote as much energy as
possible to killing thistles in our native meadows or will they
decrease once the native plants get established?<br>
<br>
Thanks to everyone who uses & contributes to this mailing list!<br>
