A Selective Systemic Herbicide for Douglas-fir Nurseries- Preliminary Findings

This note reports the successful use of a chlorophenoxybutyric, in small plot tests, as a systemic herbicide which does not injure Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings. It is presented in the hope that nurserymen growing Douglas-fir will conduct additional tests to outline its value and safety as a nursery herbicide.
