Killing waterhemp in non GMO soybeans.
Has anyone found a spray combination that will kill waterhemp?. Last year nothing seemed to work. Used Flex Star and Cobra. Weeds looked sick for a few days then greened back up. The only thing we did was burn the beans back. Any suggestions? Beans are non GMO.

No crop oil just the products I listed
I’ll try some of that. Are you still using the crop oil with the Cobra?
All of our non gmo beans are for high protein
Nothing works good. Best luck I've had is Ultra Blazer @ 40 gal/acre with some dyne-amic. Best luck doesn't mean it worked well though. Key ...

Or how soon after you spray, you will till.
Treflan or sonalan is cheap. But it...

The cereal rye has worked well for me. But do a good job at planting no skips , they turn into a weed patch you can not kill.
That is a nice price. I hope you find something that works.
