I planted my flowers behind a fairly high rate of command put out last year on sweet potatoes, 1 qt.\ac. the flowers on the sandy hillside are showing command damage now a little, 11 months later. I have seen this on other crops in certain places in other years also. If this is command damage i doubt it would work pre-plant not so sure it is command damage i am seeing but sure looks like it to me.

If they are white or pink, it's Command. Maybe a reduced rate, depending on the soil type, would work.
