Aminopyralid - Red Clover Test
« on: January 11, 2012, 23:32:37 »
I came across this paper which I found interesting.

http://www.wrap.org.uk/downloads/Clopyralid_report_FINAL.2fe810e3.9966.pdf

I seems to suggest that growing Red Clover will show problems in 14 days.  Which I think is rather more speedy than the bean tests.

Has anyone any experience of the affects on Red Clover?    I might give it a whirl.

I have been using quite a lot of recycled compost and I am concerned about it.  A 14 day test might be very welcome.

There are details instructions for testing with red clover on this site

Gives a good list of susceptible plant for clopyralid but unfortunately not for aminopyralid.
