Dear Tony, My surmise on this scenario is that you dont take the use of BD501 as a herbicide/weedicide. What seems to be the implications from this experiment is that BD501 has some potential amongst other control tools. At no point should it be considered to be a substitute for good general farming practices. The development of the techniques involved with African Love Grass is Roger's project. My chosen method to trial is radionic broadcast of the Love Grass pepper. The block had already had 4 ( I think) applications of BD500, 1 application of BD501 and 200 litres/ acre of compost teas. previously there was hardly enough food to maintain 1 rabbit, it seems that now we have a problem with rabbits. Something has changed. Starting tomorrow I am going to start radionically broadcasting a rabbit pepper we used previously at Rockwell ( another Upper Snowy Landcare group project) which proved to be successful when sprayed out. the interesting part is that I live 600 kms from where the rabbit problem is. Will keep you informed on progress.
