Roger Please forgive my lack of attention on this. I have looked thru the archive and can not find the post that you outlined what you have done and what you achieved. As a researcher in this field, we have done several trials of 501 as a weed control as early as 1990. I would be most interested in the details of what you are claiming to '' own'. regards Glen A
