be careful what you mix with roundup. There are some chemical chemistries that do not work well with roundup and actually make it less affective. 2-4D mixed only works as a very very early burndown around here. Problem with resistant weeds is not getting them killed graveyard dead to begin with. You want a slow kill with good root penetration or you start getting resistant weeds because you thought you killed them and really only stunned them. So to answer your real question if you catch your mairestail as it spikes out of the ground then you mite have a chance with the milestone. but if your milestone only stunes it you get an even more resistant weed. If your maires tails get more than 3" better off getting out your disk and just working them in because theres not anything that kills them graveyard dead after they get that big. You mite think its dead but its not. Almost everyone I know spraying isnot spraying stratigh round-up anymore especially if they use RR beans and RR corn you have to mix chemicals to kill the volunteer corn.
