So we have a significant pigweed issue as well. We bought a hooded sprayer at the beginning of the year and that has helped but not fixed the problem. I just recently went in with a boomless sprayer and burnt everything down. Doves are thick...zidua is the chemical I’m told will help significantly with the problem. I’m throwing around the idea of planting a winter cover crop and then planting directly into that next year and coupling that with a new herbicide plan to include the zidua. I’m not sure how all that will work out though....it’s an ongoing process....all that said if you have the option I would rotate crops for a few years to something you can torch the pigweed in. We want to keep the flowers where they are so that isn’t an option for us at this point.

The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.
