WOOLLY CUPGRASS🌿

🔎How to Spot It:

• Hairy ligule and leaves with dense, short hairs

• Can grow 3–4 feet tall

• Branched seed heads with two rows of seeds

• Leaf edge often looks rippled

• Seedlings have a large seed at the root and a short, flat first leaf

• Mature plants grow leaves at wider angles from the stem

📢Why It Matters:
Woolly cupgrass spreads fast and can become a major problem in corn and soybean fields if not caught early.

Control Tips:
👀 Scout regularly—especially terraces and grass waterways
💦 Use targeted spraying in high-pressure spots
