Johnsongrass is one of Kentucky's most troublesome invasive grasses. Originally introduced as a forage crop, it now spreads aggressively through both seed production and underground rhizomes, allowing it to quickly dominate old fields, pollinator plantings, food plots, and other wildlife habitat areas.
This stand of Johnsongrass was 12–24 inches tall when sprayed for the second time in the middle of June, making it an excellent time for treatment. At that growth stage, the plant is actively moving nutrients to its root system, helping herbicides move throughout the plant and improving control.
For areas where complete vegetation control is acceptable, like this potential native seed site, a glyphosate application can be an effective treatment option. Follow all label directions and ensure plants are actively growing for best results.
Control requires persistence. This field was sprayed twice. While Johnsongrass can be tenacious, controlling infestations before they produce seed can significantly reduce future problems and improve opportunities for desirable native vegetation to establish.
This particular site, which is serving as a demonstration plot, was planted to a diverse wildflower and native warm season grass mix in the last week of June. We will provide an update on the progress of this plot in a future post!
