I recently used Milestone on a hillside of ironweed. I have been mowing it religiously ,usually twice a year-it is pasture. But the ironweeds never died out from mowing. The Milestone only cost @$110.00 for a quart,and @ 5-7ounces per acre was the spray rate. The jury is still out on the effectiveness-all the weeds look stunted.BUT-the evening I sprayed,dew came up early,and I was spraying on damp ground,so that may have diluted my spray rate.A neighbor just sprayed his field,during daytime, with Milestone to kill out Canadian Thistle,and some iron weed-I will go over in a few days to see if he had better results on his iron weeds. I cannot comment on milkweed. HOWEVER,there is an important note to using Milestone:if you cut the hay,it stays in the manure,and will kill sensitive crops if you spread it on crop ground-the next year. That's VERY IMPORTANT to remember. ALSO-VERY IMPORTANT- you need to spray while the weeds are vegetative - that means actively growing,and not headed out with a seed head. It's getting late in the fall for that.Mark.

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
