Chemical weed control in rose nursery fields

Boysie E. Day and Robert C. Russell

Hilgardia, 1955, vol. 23, issue 14

Abstract: In these experiments of chemical weed control in rose nursery fields, cuttings were planted in t he bottom of furrows in lat e December and early January. These were irrigated twice weekly until rooted. A month to five weeks after planting, CMU, DCMU, SES, CIPC, IPC, and alanap were applied to the soil in the furrows. CMU and DCMU controlled all weeds, and the two phenylcarbamates were of only limited effectiveness. Alanap controlled the weeds but caused serious injury to the roses. Treatments of CMU and DCMU applied in April proved to be as toxic to the roses as to the weeds, while three phenylcarbamates applied at that time provided excellent weed control without damaging the roses.
