weed killer

Postby dingbat » Tue Aug 09, 2016 9:49 am

Hi there,


I am trying to to find a Spanish version of a Roundup weed killer product that you wipe on the leaves of a plant so that it will only kill THAT plant & not the surrounding plants. I have very deep rooted grass growing in between other plants I want to keep. I can`t get Roundup delivered to Spain.


Any body know of an alternative??


Thanks

Yes, the one I bought is called KARDA, and the 'active ingredient' is GLYPHOSATE (Glifosato in Spanish). available from Garden Centres.
Use with care and keep it off your skin ... must be used on a sunny day to be effective.
Be aware it is not a 'green' solution to the problem ... but it does work !!

I have a huge bottle(one litre) which will probably last for the rest of my life .... if I don't drink it :D

You could try using organic weed killers.You could either pour boiling water over them or cover them up with newspapers so that they would not get enough sunlight needed for their growth.I won't be there are at home for a couple of weeks so I got a home security camera installed so that I could monitor the garden while I am away through my smartphone.
