1. A method of controlling plant growth, the method comprising:
preparing a herbicide composition, by:
providing a herbicide concentrate composition comprising a herbicide compound in its charge neutral acid form; andcombining the herbicide concentrate composition with acidifying agent and water to form a herbicide application composition having a pH below the pKa of the herbicide compound in acid form, wherein the pKa of the herbicide compound is below 6; and applying the herbicide application composition to a plant to control plant growth by the herbicide compound, wherein the herbicide compound damages and penetrates the plant surface and wherein the herbicide compound is dicamba acid (3,6-dichloro-O-anisic acid).
