Weeds love or loathe them





Another title , could be trefoil does it grow? , any way we went for a walk this afternoon , with the camera and here are the results , my big concern is the fools parsley , docks , and every other weed growing in the field , so now i have a dilemma, do i spray out the weeds , in the hope that the clover takes off more strongly or do i in the best tradition of organics leave it. My intial thought is this , its not an organic trial, so therfore i am tempted to knock out said weeds , however i am just alittle bit worried about soil life so perhaps abit more research is required . I have 2 people advising me on this project and until i check with them that i can use there names i will call them Roger and Neil .(have now checked) Anyway Roger our regular agronomist reckons i can spray the wheat and trefoil with MCPB , i will have to find out whether i can buffer its effects with something like fulvic acid to protect the soil, any thoughts .
