Question: | "Some years ago we reclaimed some old woodland and laid the reclaimed land down to gallops. One part of a gallop has quite a growth of young gorse shoots and we are wondering if there is a way of killing the gorse without destroying the turf." |
Answer/Response: | "Regular mowing at normal racecourse height (75 mm to 100 mm [3 to 4 in.]) should really keep the gorse under control but otherwise it would be a question of spraying with a suitable selective weedkiller. We would think you could probably control the gorse by spraying next year with selective weedkiller based on a mixture of 2,4,5-T and 2,4-D. We would suggest making a trial over a limited area in the first instance. Keep horses of any other livestock away from the treated area for two weeks." |
