Extreme Custom Food Plots is hired to custom apply herbicide over a lot of acres each year. We feel based on the amount of seed we sell to the “do it yourselfer” and all the questions we receive in this process, it only made sense to make available the needed herbicides also. We have identified a group of herbicides that will cover any habitat project you get yourself into. We are doing this to help ensure that you get the right herbicides for your plots to help you have success as wildlife land managers.
Keep in mind that you should always follow the label directions for any chemical. Extreme Custom Food Plots is available to discuss any of these chemicals. It is the responsibility of the buyer to READ THE LABEL!
Understanding Different Herbicides
In basic terms, herbicides will typically fall into one of the following categories: pre-emergent or post-emergent. It is important to understand how the herbicide you are using works.
Pre-Emergent Herbicides are applied to the soil to help prevent weeds from growing. How long a pre-emergent herbicide works and what specific weed species it works on will vary with each herbicide and application rate.
Post-Emergent Herbicides are used to kill weeds that are already growing. These herbicides are sometimes selective to kill only certain weed/plant species and sometimes are non-selective, meaning they kill almost any plant they come into contact with. Post-emergent herbicides always work best on smaller, young, vigorously growing weeds.
