Stronger than round up. Something that can eradicate blackberries near a koi pond and around my pool equipment?

The koi pond will of course need to be surgically placed as to not get into pond.

Take a knife and cut some about a 3" piece of bark off the stem of the plant. Use a medicine dropped and put 3-5 drops of pure strength round up on the exposed bark.

What Roundup are you using?

The premixed stuff from Home Depot is not what you want.

Regular ag. Roundup is 41% glyphosate and you can mix it up to a 10% solution if I remember the table right. Normal mix is 2.5 oz. to the gallon which is like a 3% solution or so.

We usually run the 2.5 oz Roundup with 2,4-D for fence line weed control- takes care of the blackberries, willows, all the stuff pretty good.

Spray this shite thick and wait it takes a little longer than you would think but, then three years later everything is still dead.

we mix round up and 2-4-D. we get them from a feed store/co-op in the 2 1/2 gal. jugs ,and mix it strong. it will kill everything it touches.

dont use the premixed. double what the ratio says per gallon in 3 or 4 days it will die.

This stuff has the same active as Roundup plus another herbicide and kills for up to one year it's great--highly concentrated

if you mess with 2-4-D wear eye goggles. full strength will blind you if a drop gets in your eyes - read the instructions carefully

Lots of bad info in here.

Any 41% glyphosphate herbicide with a sufactant mixed at 2.5oz/gallon of water will kill it.

Mixing more than what's called for on the label is wasting chemical and money.

2-4-d sounds a little much to deal with.

Does it come premixed? Or is it just too expensive premixed.

Nonselective herbicide called Reward. Spray in the morning, anything it touches will be dead by the afternoon.

If you're just spraying one bush then premixed is fine because you'll never use a quart of straight juice.

Buy according to how much you'll use this summer. There's no need to have stockpiles of herbicide for a subdivision yard.
