A hot, sunny and dry day is just about the worst kind of weather for
applying roundup (aside from rain). Plants conserve water on hot dry
days by closing their pores, meaning they don't get much of a dose.

The ideal weather is an overcast day with a slight amount of drizzle.


MORON!


Yes. A 'moron' with 5 years commercial experience using roundup
(unfortunately). Have another drink Sheldon.
