The following is intended to <br />If it does not, please let me know and I will be happy to add to it. <br />On September 10, 20101 accompanied you, Wayne Giesy, and Reid Giesy to the Ophir Lode <br />mine. In route we met Bob Oswald and he joined us for the last part of the journey. t drove <br />the last approximate % mile over the permitted road with my AN sprayer. At the mine <br />entrance area I found the reported infestation of Yellow toadf lax and Canada thistle. I flagged <br />.the perimeter of the infection and then sprayed it with a combination of Telar and Tordon. <br />My goal was to apply the combination at 2 Qt./acre of Tordon and 2 Oz/acre Telar. (Please see <br />the attached copy of the invoice for additional details information required by the State of <br />Colorado). <br />I choose to use a combination of Telar and Tordon based on recommendations of various <br />individuals, applicators and Colorado State Extension Service. These two chemicals are labeled <br />for control of Yellow toadflax and Canada thistle. I have been using this combination for at <br />least the last 10 years and found it to be the most effective of any chemical, or combination, I <br />have tried on Yellow toadflax. Yellow toadflax is extremely had to eliminate and usually <br />requires multiple treatments. Canada thistle is not nearly as hard to kill and so we should <br />expect good control with this mix before that of Yellow toadflax. If additional research <br />recommends a different chemical, or combination, I will certainly consider it for future <br />treatments.
