Has anyone used Roundup before and if so, is it any good and any helpful tips when using it. Any help would be appreciated as I have never used a weedkiller before. Thanks.

I don't do chemicals, but I don't have a huge garden. I dug over our front & back by hand, pulling out every clump of weed/grass/moss that i found. Once the soil had been tilled it was easy to pull out the baby weeds as they reappeared. Alternatively, less labour intensive is to lay old carpet on the unwanted greenery, after a few weeks the plants will die from lack of light & start to compost themselves. Good luck.
