[QUOTE="bandit80, post: 566051, member: 7956"] 2, 4-D at the local grain company is between $18-$19 per gallon. Without looking, I think the application rate is 8oz/acre, which ends up costing just over $1/acre for the chemical. I don't know of any chemical that will kill thistles and not kill your clover. Someone else may have a better recommendation. If the thistles aren't too bad, you can simply cut them out, and after a few years there won't be very many. Easiest thing to do may be just to go ahead and spray to kill the thistles and weeds for a couple years. Once that is under control, you can replant your clover. Then you can simply spot spray any thistles or weeds that come in. [/QUOTE]
