Roundup. Don't waste your money buying that premix crap. Buy full strength stuff and mix it yourself per instructions.

I save a decent amount of money and use the Spectracide brand. Has the same active ingredients without paying for the commercials, the generic equivalent if you will.
Also, grab yourself some muratic acid and mix that in as well.

My dad is a chemical rep for an ag company and we get their brand of roundup and 2-4D in 2 1/2 gallon jugs for cheap. Mix them together a little stronger than recommended and it works great.

I have been using Home Depots brand lately. It's called hdx I think. Way cheaper than round up and does and excellent job.

Mix per instructions. Too much and you kill the top of the plant before its sucked into the roots and its wasted

I use Eraser per pacakge directions and add 2-3 drops per gallon of dish soap.

Whatever u use, try not to spray flowering weeds. Dang stuff is implicated in bee-hive syndromne (sp).

Any brand with glyphosate as the active ingredient. Mix about 2-3 oz/gal of water (for 48% active ing) Put a little dishwashing soap in it as a surfactant

Amen on the dish soap. Roundup has been clogging my sparayer(s) for years unless I add a few drops of Dawn to the mix.

Depends on what type of weed and where it's located. 2-4d won't kill all weeds and roundup will kill your lawn.
Posted on 8/11/15 at 6:39 am to 4A/5A Bluechip
I just use roundup concentrate. Sometimes put 2,4d in it if I,have some.
2,4d alone won't kill all because it is only for broad leaf weeds. So a mixture with some other killer works best

More active beehives than any time in the last 20 years.

Roundup mixed per the bottle works as advertised. I've spent a lot of money on other shite and searching for a better way. Na, just stay simple. Honestly, they all suck to those, like myself, who has or had access to farm grade chemicals. For simple home use just go with what's on the shelf.

When it starts smoking you know you got the mixture just right.
