Default how long between applying glyphosate and chopping?

Don't think you have to wait quite that long with Glyphosate.

In my experience, it's very slow. After a week, you may notice no change. After a few weeks, the
plant is no longer thriving. It can take over a month to get to the stage you describe but the
plant is doomed much earlier.
