I especially hate the ones that pop with seeds when they touch you (those have to be sprayed in the fall?).

I sprayed last weekend using my old Polaris ATV with a boom sprayer I bought about 15 years ago from Northern. I use Trimec mixed about 2 oz per gallon. It works OK on most weeds, but it does not do much to hurt the clover. I typically like to spray on a calm morning when the air temp is then supposed to be high later with no rain forecasted for a couple days after. I may end up re-spraying in a week or two as the dandelions are hurting, but I am not sure they are all going to die.
My grass looks pretty bad compared to many fancy developments closer to civilization, but all I am after is dandelion free green stuff covering the yard/runway.
