    Default Spraying pine seedlings?

    Got a section of pines that were planted back in February or early March that are located where a heavy stand of kudzu used to be. I chisel plowed the area multiple times and successfully up-rooted most of the kudzu roots but apparently didn’t get them all. Now I have some sections of the stand that need to be treated. There are some other weeds also which I’m not as worried about but I am concerned that the climbing nature of the kudzu will get around some of my pines and damage or kill them. Is there anything I can spray the entire stand with that will take care of the kudzu and not kill the pines?

    Arsenal will not kill the Kudzu.

    64 oz of imazapyr will absolutely destroy young pine seedlings!
    Do not do it unless you understand you are site prepping and intend to replant.
    Furthermore, 64 oz of imazapyr (Arsenal active ingredient) will sterilize the soil severely and further impact the ability to grow a plantation of young trees for an extended period.

    You can definitely spray Arsenal over pines but at restricted release rates only.
    Those release rates are probably going to provide zero control for kudzu however.
    I don't have much experience with kudzu, but in all lieklyhood you're not going to discover any herbicide that will provide control without negative impact on your Loblolly.
    Like I said, this should have been addressed pre plant.
    Escort possibly....but once again, I doubt it.

    Yes. I did back when it first started coming up. Got busy and finally got to check it this weekend to find a jungle on my hillside. I can back pack spray it, just will be difficult with all the other vegetation mixed in
