On September 28-29, 1960, ~bout three weeks after weeds were removed and weighed, the plots were divided .into three SUbplots (4 feet wide and 9 feet long).

STRAWBERRY HERBICIDEINVESTIGATIONSFOR 1961.<br />
Oscar E. Schubert l<br />
The 1960 strawberry herbicide investigations for a combination of<br />
herbicides to control weeds witb a minimum of hand-""eding wel'e continued<br />
in 1961.<br />
Experiment 1<br />
Catskill· strawberry plants were set in early Ap#l J 1960, and weeded by<br />
hand-hoeing and a rotary cultivator until June 19 .. On June 20-21, and on<br />
July 21, seven herbicides, or combinations thereOf, were applied at ran40m to<br />
four replicated plots (9 feet wide and 12 feet long). Information about<br />
average weed weights, kind of weeds controlled, and :number of runner plants<br />
formed during the first season I s grOwthwere reporte!d (1).<br />
It was not entirely feasible to fulfill one of the original purposes of<br />
the experiment--to determine if herbicides alone co\U.d be used for adequate<br />
weed control without any additional hand-weeding--si!1ce the weeds had to be<br />
removed for weighing. In Treatments 2 and 6, the ~tity of weeds removed<br />
last year was small (0.43 and 1. 45 pounds per plot c.ompared with 112 pounds<br />
in the non-hoed check plot) so these treatments may ~pproach the goal.<br />
On September 28-29, 1960, ~bout three weeks after weeds were removed<br />
and weighed, the plots were divided .into three SUbplots (4 feet wide and 9<br />
feet long). Two subplots in each plot were treated /3otrandom with<br />
additional herbicides on September 28-29 and/or November 4, 1960. The<br />
entire series of treatments are pres.ented in Table L<br />
The planting was mulched with 'ltheat straw in ear~y December. The<br />
strawberry plants came through the light covering of'mulch the following<br />
spring; therefore, it was not necessary to remove th,mulch.<br />
On June 14, 1961, careful observations were m~ in all the plots<br />
regarding plant vigor, stand, berry size and set, ~ possible herbicide<br />
injury. The vigor of each SUbplot was estimated as a percentage of the most<br />
vigorous hoed-check plants (rated as 100). The aver~e per cent vigor of the<br />
two subplots which were treated in September and/or ~ember is given for<br />
each treatment in ·Table 2. The analysis of variance and all comparisons<br />
