What is the broadleaf in this picture red circle? I mowed half my plot trying to kill them and they seem to be coming right back.

Google broadleaf dock (Rumex obtusifolius) and compare that to what your seeing.

Thats it. Thanks! Now that I know what it is, I can plan my attack!

Yep either curly or broadleaf dock

I cant find a quick and easy way to get rid of this. I read where you can spray, but that doesn't always work, and you have to keep spraying. The other option is dig them out by hand. I am not opposed to a little work, but trying to recover from back surgery not sure the Dr would like that.

Anyone have any luck?

I would think a 2-4D would kill them easily. If the label says it kills it then it will kill it. If the label says repeat the application 10 days later or somthing then do what it says.

I think you may want to use 24d-b if you dont want your clover destroyed with regular 24-d.
