I usually just use glyphosate at about 2 quarts An acre but with grass and grass weeds being our probably almost every fallow season I was thinking of adding 6-10 oz of clethodim with about 2 quarts per acre of glyphosate to help with the grasses, clethodim from what I can find doesn't have much of any soul residual to worry about when it comes time to plant like some others. Has anyone ever used this mixture?

Never used that mixture, have always used gly and 2 4d for burn down.
I have used that also. But we don't really have a bad broadleaf problem that's a roundup doesn't kill. Another question I had is how long do you guys wait to spray after you have Bush hog or mowed your fields? I usually try to wait about a week or more but due to time constraints may not be able to this year. Should I still get the good kill?
Gly and dicamba for me. I believe they took the Dicamba off the market
Gly & Glu (Liberty) is what we used last year & will spray Thursday. 1.5 qt Gly, 1 qt Glu, 1 gallon AMS, 10 oz crop oil & 20 gal H2O per acre. Scorched earth & no residual. Best results sprayed between 10:00 & 4:00 when temps 90+.
I'd save the Clethodim unless you're spraying newly emerging grass that's no more than 2"-3" tall. I just sprayed tall crabgrass with 41% Glyphosate on Saturday and it was already starting to turn as of yesterday.

Normally I would do the same: wait a week or so to allow the weeds/grasses to regrow a little. But my last couple of plantings I sprayed the same day I mowed. Still got an excellent kill.

They should take it off the market. Some of the worst drifting chemicals out there. It's also a restricted chemical.
I disagree
