you noticed a weed looking like wild mustard growing in your hay or pasture fields during the next two weeks yellow rocket will be coming into bloom it is a bien nial or shortlived perennial plant during the first growing season a rosette of reaves is proauced on the surface of the ground followed by a flower ing stem up to two feet high the next spring yellow rocket does not per sist in springcultivated fields and thus is usually found in hay fields road sides and waste places the use of clean no 1 grass seed is very impor tant in preventing the spread of this weed as it spreads only by seeds usually it is introduced to a farm in timothy seed if there are only a few plants they should be carefully pulled and either buried or burned to prevent them from going to seed clipping in the early flowering stage may also be practiced if the infestation is small heavily infested fields can be cut for hay or made- into haylage or grass silage before it goes to seed yellow rocket is susceptible to 24d sixteen ounces of this herbicide applied at the early stages of growth will control the yellow rocket in fields where there is very little le gume however in our alfalfa fields 24db
