Not your doing. Therefore, NYP.

No but, I didn't know anybody was still using 2,4D. That stuff is powerful sh*t!

****ing vinegar worked better for me than 2-4D. That shit is near worthless.

Timing. 2-4D will only stick around a couple days, and probably won't volatilize after the first day, particularly if you put it down in the morning. If you exposed his plants to 2-4D the damage would be immediate. I mean within 20 minutes. 3 weeks later, any effects are not 2-4D. What does it do to tomatoes? Lays them the **** over. They will literally ****ing melt. They will not be standing. The leaves will technically pucker, but the overriding thing is that it melts the **** out of tomatoes. And much exposure at all will kill the **** out of tomatoes. Sounds like he's FOS and doesn't want to buy new tomatoes. If you're worried about it, there is probably an extension agent around that could tell you what the damage is. If he's real pissed, ask him to pay for a tissue sample. They can determine if there is any 2-4D in the leaf. |

I think he made the mistake of planting in mud and then we had really wet weather and cool temperatures. His plants are OK... they're still blooming and have small tomatoes on them. I don't want to be a dick, but I think he thinks it's my fault. From everything I've read I did nothing wrong. |

Broadleaf weeds. Probably didn't help that I bought the shit from Menards, so it was probably like 90% sweatshop worker piss.

Yeah. 2-4D is most effective when mixed with other chemistries. Weed-B-Gone is mixed with Banvel, but it is pretty weak. Particularly if you buy the pre-mixed product. Ortho doesn't want ****ers calling in saying the same shit Stewie's neighbor is.
