[QUOTE="flaboy, post: 99735, member: 1726"] Hey bullrider, I tried Roundup on the Soda Apples. It didn't work very well even when sprayed directly on the plant. I had to treat them two times with Roundup. I used Remedy and Prosecutor with direct application. I found Proscecutor to work the best. It takes about two weeks. The problem is it will kill the grass if sprayed directly like I did mixed at about 3-4 ounces/gal. If you have to do several acres this application method probably won't work. I use a hand sprayer and a 4 wheeler. Also if after the plant dies, if you don't get the fruit picked up they will come right back. 200-400 seeds in each fruit. This is one reason when bringing stock onto your farm you should keep them in a small manageable area for about two days. Then if they have brought you a present you have a much smaller area to worry about. There are also two types of Soda Apples. One is the green/yellow one and the other is the red which looks like the cherry tomato. We have the biggest problem here in FLA with the yellow/green one. Oh, and the needles will go right through a pair of leather gloves like you didn't have them on. [/QUOTE]
