SUMMARY:Weeding Crew - July 13th
DESCRIPTION:Time: 7:00 – 10:00 AM. Working period is always flexible\, just communicate your intentions with the leader. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWhere:  Updated once email for date goes out \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nDuties: Locating and hand pulling Yellow Starthistle and Diffuse Knapweed Plants. The Rush Skeletonweed plants are left rooted in the ground\, but are clipped of their blooms and buds\, and the remaining plant stems individually “painted” with Roundup herbicide. (not all crew members do this task). Plants range in size from short\, small plants to larger branched plants with thorns. At present\, plants are ranging from only a few inches in height up to nearly 3 feet in height\, depending on species and individual growing conditions.They may occur as single plants\, small groupings\, or in small patches. Presently we are seeing some weeds starting into the blooming stage\, making them more easily identified\, but also needing quicker removal. We will bag and remove the plant material. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTools and Clothing: Bring good strong gloves — leather is best! Long sleeved shirts and long pants are recommended for scratch and sun protection. Don’t forget a hat. A small set of pruning clippers is sometimes useful. Generally\, just pulling and bagging the plants has proven to be the most practical method of removal. Since we are constantly moving\, a fanny pack or small backpack is useful to carry your “stuff” — gloves\, phone\, water\, snacks\, tools\, sun protection\, etc. Bring heavier plastic bags for the weeds if you have them – like feed bags or potting soil bags\, etc. The weedmaster will have bags\, too. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTerrain: We are working off-trail where the ground is sloped and uneven with plenty of dry Cheatgrass\, rocky in some areas — sturdy boots recommended. The weedmaster suggests using boot gaiters to keep the Cheatgrass out of your socks and boots. The Cheatgrass is again plentiful this year! \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nReply to: davidbeach47@gmail.com Please let the weedmaster know as early as possible\, so they can have an idea who to be looking for and how large of a group to expect for assignments\, etc. After meeting at the parking lot\, we sometimes drive our vehicles\, or carpool to another location closer to the work area.
