Default Roundup Question ??

I have a small flower planting area of about 25 sq. ft. When I plant
flowers in it each summer, the weeds come up so bad, I can keep up with
weeding it each week. (I also much about 3 or 4 inches, but that doesn't
stop these weeds).

Before I plant flowers, if I soak the ground with Roundup, how long would
I have to wait to plant the flowers ?

thanks !!

I bought some new stuff called Preen. It is pre-emergent, meaning you put
it on when the weeds AREN'T there, and it keeps them from sprouting. Says
it can be cultivated right into soil next to existing plants. Check it out.
I hope it works as good as it says, I have a large area that needs weed
control.

But, one man's plant is another person's weed.

Obama is now backing a bipartisan Senate budget plan that would cut Social Security and Medicare, while cutting taxes on the wealthy. In addition to entitlement cuts, the so-called "Gang of Six" plan would eliminate a number of popular tax breaks and deductions, including write-offs for home mortgage interest and employer-provided health benefits. The savings would help offset the cost of then lowering the top individual and corporate tax rates from 35 percent to at least 29 percent.

America is not broke.

You put Lloyd Blankfein in pound-me-in-the-ass prison for one six-month term, and all this bullshit would stop, all over Wall Street. That's all it would take. Just once.
