It must be mixed in that order. The Imazapyr work on species that the Triclopyr is weak on and vice versa. Get you a good Eastwing or Fiskars hatchet and a spray bottle. One squirt per 3" diameter. I've done drill/fill using a cordless impact with a 3/8" auger bit and it works. But I've gone to using a hatchet for efficiency.

Triumph RTU is a generic for Tordon RTU and is available in quart bottles, the last I bought was around $20/qt. This may be a cheaper option if you don't have a large area to do.


Will the Garlon kill pines? I tried to thin young pines a couple years ago with gly + imazapyr and it didn't bother them. It did kill the hardwoods.


My handy dandy pocket chart says Triclopyr does control pine. Haven't applied this mix to any yet, but I have a couple of propects in mind.


"Cull" is just another four letter word...
