Pitchcare Classifieds WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT
feeding and overseeding programme will also ensure your green is well populated and retains a dense sward, thereby reducing the chance of weed seeds such as Toad Rush from establishing.
As for the Toad Rush plants you already have in your green, depending on the extent of the invasion, you can treat them in the following way:
- Spend time removing the clumps by hand cutting out with a knife
- Toad Rush hates close mowing and cutting into its crown - so pre-season
verticutting or scarifying, coupled with a reduction in cutting height, should put it under stress and reduce its capacity
- Spot treat with a selective herbicide that has
diethanolamine salt, known as 2,4-D, as the active ingredient e.g. Depitox. Paint on with a paint brush.
- Spot treat with a total herbicide, using Glyphosate, being mindful it will kill all vegetation and, therefore, being very careful how it is applied; again, paint on with a paint brush

What is a monocot?
Monocots are one of two major groups of flowering plants (or angiosperms) that are
traditionally recognised, the other being dicots. Monocot seedlings typically have one cotyledon (seed-leaf), in contrast to the two cotyledons typical of dicots.
According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature, there are 59,300 species of monocots. The largest family in this group (and in the flowering plants as a whole), by number of species, are the orchids (family Orchidaceae), with more than 20,000 species.
In agriculture, the majority of the biomass produced comes from monocots. The true grasses (Gramineae) are the most economically important family in
this group. These include all the true grains (rice, wheat, maize, etc.), the pasture grasses, sugar cane and the bamboos. True grasses have evolved to become highly specialised for wind pollination.
Grasses produce much smaller flowers, which are gathered in highly visible plumes (inflorescences). Other
economically important monocot families are the palm family (Arecaceae), banana family (Musaceae), ginger family (Zingiberaceae) and the onion family (Alliaceae).
Many plants cultivated for their blooms are also from the monocot group, notably lilies, daffodils, irises, amaryllis, orchids, cannas, bluebells and tulips.
