I tried my hand at planting chufas last season. I got them in thr ground a little later than I should have (late July), and within weeks of planting both fields were waste high in weeds. So I went back down and bushhogged both fields. When we planted winter crops I went ahead and disked up one of my chufa patches believing they didn't make because I saw no visible sign of them coming up. We planted our winter plot. When I made it to the other field, because it was so large I just planted around the part I put the chufas in. All winter long it lookes like a dead spot and not one turkey was seen in that field all deer season long (although I did hear them fly up with 100 yards of it several times). I went down to the club last weekend and the Hogs had been in the chufa section of my field rooting around.

I want to plant them again, but I don't want a repeat of the waist high weeds again. What do you guys spray that will kill the weeds but not the Chufas?
