Looking to annihilate every plant in the ditch. I'm tired of cutting it and the parish only cuts it about once every 6 months.

Put drainage pipes down and fill the ditch in.

roundup.


Roundup works well until the next deluge hits. Then the weeds start growing all over again. It doesn't stay in the soil very long.

3oz Roundup, 2oz of 2,4-D per gallon. Roundup is absorbed through foliage and prevents chlorophyll production. Has no residual. Anything residual will probably not be "listed" for use in ditches due to leaching.
