Is this a good time to spray roundup?
I want to get it sorted once and for all and given the price of roundup, I only want to do it once.
Generally you can spray roundup in January then again say April and again in Autumn.Angela59
If you are spraying the same area 3 times per year, then there is something wrong. Roundup is an expensive weed killer. For that amount of spraying you would be better using a cheaper less toxic spray.
You can also try this eco spray...(it works!)
4 cups vinegar (pickling is best)
1/2 cup salt
2 tsp dish soap
I have a client who own a herbicide factory / distribution center so I can get it at the right price.
The area I have to spray is about an acre. Up to two years ago I grew potatoes, root veg and shrubs. Then we put in a new septic tank, and started a large extension. As a result the garden has gone a little out of control. If I dont get the grass and docs killed off early enough, I will lose the motivation to get a crop in this year.
I dont mind what herbicide I use so long as its effective.
The americans might have banned roundup, but they still put hormones in their beef!
So pardon me if I dont follow the american example.
