Serving Waynesboro, Augusta County & the Shenandoah Valley

Technical memorandum summarizing a 2018 pilot comparing foliar glyphosate application and stem injection (with and without pre-cutting) to control Japanese knotweed along the South River at Constitution Park (AOC 4). All treatments killed test-plot stands by fall monitoring. Foliar spray was faster and cost-effective but risks spray drift; stem injection suited small patches near desirable vegetation.
