The project involves cutting orientalist bittersweet vines that are growing up trees and applying garlon 4 (triclopyr) mixed with diesel to the surface of the cut vine encircling the vine and to the ground.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>We worked on the project last weekend and plan another work trip mid November. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>The area where we are working also has numerous areas of “undergrowth” of vines. I was told best to use foliar spray in late summer and then cut vines. However in summer lots of other underbrush and ticks and snakes. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Instead can these shorter vines be killed and controlled in November? <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText> If these vines are cut close to the ground if herbicide garlon 4 is applied will it kill the vines? How close to the ground do these undergrowth vines need to be cut.
