User's notes
Sprayed and mapped with Field Maps Treated Weeds; some PC and sowthisles at the edge of dense patch not sprayed because I ran out of herbicide; 100s of lovely Early Nancy plants nearby where we sprayed over a month ago on the 3rd august. Many dead trees Eucalyptus and Cherry Ballart also stumps of cut trees uphill of the cleared area.
August - we must have overlooked this patch of PC.
