Maybe next week I'll tell you about some of the work we've done trying to figure out how to best manage herbicide resistant weeds. #WeedyWednesday
It's #WeedyWednesday! Today I'm going to tell you a quick story about herbicide-resistant weeds!
I'm going to try to make #WeedyWednesday a thing, in an effort to more regularly post something interesting about #weedscience. For the inaugural thread, I'm going to discuss one of my favorite areas of research that I and my students have been working on for ~10 years: shade avoidance.

#Pigweed reproduces in the #farm field and #garden by seed, which it produces a ton of. We put together a life cycle disruption information resource for #organic and #NoSpray farms but its also great info for #gardeners. #weedyWednesday https://njaes.rutgers.edu/fs1350/

FS1350,

On the other site I wouldn't post much, this place feels nicer. Hope it stays that way.
#farmers and #gardeners who struggle to control #CanadaThistle may be interested in this video and factsheet we created on #nonHerbicide #WeedManagement strategies. Written for farmers but strategies work in the garden too. #weedyWednesday https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un5csRO20O0&list=PLKx8NLAujm_leJVAFug4ZZMb1KPjsU7-M&index=2
