On our first episode of season 12, Tommy and Alyssa are joined by Dr. Mark VanGessel (University of Delaware) to discuss the effectiveness of late-season herbicide applications on weeds like waterhemp, Palmer amaranth, and burcucumber. They cover weed seed production, harvest concerns, herbicide limitations, resistance management, and the economic realities of spraying large weeds late in the season.
