Roundup.

If you are skittish about using chemicals, you are either gonna have to dig it up (depends on the amount you are talking about) or turn it under DEEP. Johnsongrass spreads thru rhizomes, so the best way to spread it is to till it (which cuts the rhizomes and spreads them around).

Herbicides used to control weeds in a production sunflower field (such as a dove field) include the following:

  • Dual Magnum controls seedling johnsongrass
  • Prowl 3.3EC or Pendimax 3.3EC controls seedling johnsongrass
  • Sonalan HFP
  • Treflan HFP, Trilin, Trifluralin 4EC
The above herbicides are used in in preplant and preemergence control.

When you have sunflowers standing in Johnsongrass, Select herbicide has been effective. HOWEVER, you have to know your variety of sunflower, because some are intolerant to any herbicide.
